Powdered Metal Industry Information

Powdered Metal

Powdered metal is used to make solid parts from metal powder.

Quick links to Powdered Metal Information

Design of Powdered Metal

Powdered metal is formed from solid metal bars or stock shapes into different grades of fineness in order to be used in a wide variety of applications for which solid metal is not suitable.

Materials Used in Powdered Metal

It can be made from a wide variety of metals, or combinations of metals including iron, aluminum, nickel, copper, bronze, titanium and brass. Industries such as electronics, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, automotive and industrial all use elements of powdered metals in a number of different functions.

Powdered Metal Fabrication Types

While there are a number of different methods for fabricating parts from powdered metal, it is widely used in the process of powder metallurgy for the fabrication of rigid and porous metal components. Aluminum powdered metal, bronze metal parts and iron powder metal are all common examples of the types of metals which are used from a powder form. Solid metals can be made into powder using a variety of techniques including atomization, chemical precipitation, centrifugal disintegration and hydrogen reduction.

Atomization
The most commonly used of these methods is atomization. The process of atomization separates molten, liquid metal into small separate beads that are then frozen into a solid form, creating a type of powder. The powder can vary in terms of granule size according to the desired finished product results.
Powder Metallurgy
Uses powder metal in the construction of parts and components of varying complexities. It is composed of three different stages of production. After the initial process of metal powder formation, the powdered metal is forced into a die or mold cavity until it is completely filled. These are typically simple hollow shapes that are able to be used repeatedly to make solid parts from metal powder. Both heat and pressure are used in this formation process. The die or mold is put under great pressure in order for the powdered metal to adhere together into a solid shape. The product is then further heated in a furnace to a temperature just below the metal’s melting point. This ensures the bonding of the metal particles together in a rigid and high strength part. Using a metal powder also allows for various grades of porosity to be achieved in the finished products.
Producing powdered metal parts results in very little waste as the material is forced into an enclosed die. In fact, approximately 97% of materials used during the process end up in the parts and not as scraps, making powder metallurgy both cost effective and environmentally responsible.

Why Should You Convert to Powdered Metal?

What do you think of when I say the word, Change? No, I’m not talking about what the clerk hands you after purchasing your morning coffee. I’m talking about the act or instance of making or becoming different. How many of you fear it? How many of you embrace it? “That’s the way we’ve always done it” I’ve heard that all too often. John F. Kennedy said “Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future”. I know what you're... Read More About This
