MOULAGE INJECTION POUDRE METALLIQUE [1 record]

Record 1 2006-06-15

English

Subject field(s)
  • Powder Metallurgy
  • Casting and Patternmaking (Metal Processing)
DEF

[A] process derived from plastic injection moulding, [which] is used in the large-scale production of components with complex shapes.

OBS

Injection-moulded components are very close to their final (or near-net) shape; hence, it is an appropriate production method to produce metallic parts, such as titanium alloys, that cannot be easily machined. Additionally, MPIM is a low-cost process because scrap and secondary processing operations are minimized.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Métallurgie des poudres
  • Moulage et modelage des métaux
DEF

Procédé dérivé du moulage par injection plastique [...] utilisé dans la production en série de composants de formes complexes [donnant] presque leur forme finale aux composants (leur finition est quasi immédiate).

OBS

Ce type de moulage convient donc à la fabrication de pièces en alliages de titane et d'autres pièces métalliques qui ne peuvent être usinées facilement. En outre, [il] est peu dispendieux parce que les résidus de métaux et les activités de transformation secondaires sont réduits au maximum.
