About powder metallurgy
Powder metallurgy is a modern technological process for producing metal parts and components using metal powders. This manufacturing method allows for the creation of parts with high precision in shape and size, exceptional strength, and specific properties that meet the requirements of various industries.
The primary powder metallurgy process includes the following stages:
Preparation of the Mixture: Metal powders are obtained by grinding metal or atomising (spraying) molten metal, resulting in finely dispersed powder with different fractions. Powders can be mixed with additional components such as lubricants or additives to improve the workability of the powder and the properties of the finished part.
Compacting: The mixed powder is placed in a special mould and subjected to high pressure to create a green part. In this stage, the powder is compacted but not completely sintered.
Sintering: The green part is subjected to high temperatures in a special furnace. Under the influence of pressure and temperature, the powder is completely sintered, welding together to form a finished metal part. Diffusion occurs between powder particles, leading to the formation of bonds and interactions between metal atoms.
Processing and Finishing: Finished sintered parts can undergo further processing, such as milling, drilling, grinding, or polishing, to achieve precise geometric parameters and surface quality.
The advantages of powder metallurgy include high precision in the shape and size of parts, the ability to manufacture complex geometric shapes and structures, the high strength and hardness of finished parts, minimal material loss due to the efficient use of powder, and the ability to control the composition and properties of the part by using different types of powders and additional components.
Powder metallurgy is widely used in the automotive industry, mechanical engineering, electronics, medical production, and many other industries where the quality, precision, and strength of manufactured parts are paramount.
What are the advantages of manufacturing parts using powder metallurgy?
COMPLEX FIGURES
Sintering allows complex shapes to be obtained directly from the sealing tool without any machining, such as teeth, slots, profiles, face geometry, etc.
HIGH ACCURACY OF DIMENSIONS
Achievable tolerances in the perpendicular direction of the seal are typically IT 8-9 as sintered, can be increased to IT 5-7 after sizing. IT 10-13 is reached in length depending on the geometry of the component; additional processing operations can improve this accuracy.
RELIABILITY AND REPEATABILITY IN LARGE SERIES PRODUCTION
The stability of the tool, the technical complexity of the production devices and the SPC control system ensure high reliability and repeatability of mass-produced sintered components.
SELF-LUBRICATION
The interconnected porosity of the material can be filled with oils, resulting in a self-lubricating bearing: the oil provides constant lubrication between the bearing and the shaft, and the system does not require additional external lubrication.
UNIQUE AND ISOTROPIC MATERIALS
Sintered materials have a homogeneous microstructure in three spatial directions, so the properties are isotropic. In addition, the solid-state diffusion mechanism used to create the microstructure allows the creation of compositions and materials that cannot be obtained by melting, such as composite materials made of insoluble or immiscible phases or microinsulating materials.
GREEN TECHNOLOGIES
The production process of the sintered components is certified as environmentally friendly because the material waste is very low, the product is recyclable and the energy efficiency is good because the material is not melted.
EXCELLENT SURFACE
The surface of sintered components is characterized by the presence of flat areas with very low roughness interspersed with dips corresponding to porosity. This surface condition is better than that of machined materials, which have alternating peaks and troughs. The presence of smaller peaks allows to reduce the time of running-in of the components.
EXTINGUISHING VIBRATION
The internal microporosity of sintered parts creates a damping effect on the propagation of vibration.
WEIGHT REDUCTION
Thanks to internal microporosity, sintered parts are typically 5-25% lighter than the same forged components.
