Molding
Injection Molding follows the same equipment and processes as Plastic Injection Molding. In this technique, pelletized feedstock is heated and injected under high pressure into a mold cavity, forming a “green part.” Once cooled, the part is ejected, and the cycle restarts. The binders melt to transport the metal powders, with the process typically occurring at approximately 200°C. For enhanced production efficiency, molds can feature multiple cavities. To account for shrinkage during sintering, the mold cavity is designed around 20% larger, with the shrinkage rate precisely calculated based on the material used.
Debinding
Following Injection Molding, the part undergoes the De-binding phase, where binder materials are removed from the molded Metal Injection Molding (MIM) component. This process typically occurs in stages, eliminating most of the binder before sintering while retaining enough to preserve the part’s structural integrity for handling. Solvent extraction is a widely used method for removing the binder. After de-binding, the part becomes semi-porous, allowing any residual binder to escape during sintering, ensuring a clean, precise, and high-quality final product.
Sintering
The parts are arranged on ceramic setters and loaded into a high-temperature sintering furnace with a controlled atmosphere. Within the furnace, the “brown” parts are gradually heated in a protective environment to eliminate any residual binders. Once the binders vaporize, the temperature is further increased to bond the metal particles, closing any gaps between them. This process ensures uniform shrinkage, achieving the desired dimensions and forming a dense, solid structure. The final density of the sintered parts typically exceeds 97% of the theoretical density, imparting properties comparable to those of wrought materials to the finished product.
