Application scope of powder metallurgy parts

Powder metallurgy parts have different chemical compositions and mechanical and physical properties, which cannot be obtained by traditional casting methods. This process can directly produce porous, semi dense or fully dense materials and products, such as oil containing bearings, gears, camshafts, guide rods, cutting tools, etc. It is a non cutting process. Nowadays, powder metallurgy parts have been favored by more and more people. So, what are their application ranges? Below, Yue Hong will introduce:

Powder metallurgy parts are mainly suitable for the production and research of spare parts in the automotive industry, equipment manufacturing industry, metal industry, military industry, instrumentation, hardware tools, electronic appliances and other fields, as well as the production of related raw materials and auxiliary materials, and the manufacturing of various powder preparation equipment and sintering equipment. Powder metallurgy parts include bearings, gears, hard alloy cutting tools, molds, friction products, and so on. In recent years, it has become a large market in this industry, with about 50% of automotive components manufactured in this category.

(1) Application: Powder metallurgy parts for automobiles, motorcycles, textile machinery, industrial sewing machines, power tools, hardware tools, electrical engineering machinery, and other industries.

(2) Categories: Porous materials, anti friction materials, friction materials, structural parts, tool and mold materials, electromagnetic materials, and high-temperature materials.

Powder metallurgy parts are made by producing metal powder or using metal powder as raw material, forming and sintering, and manufacturing metal materials, composite materials, and various products. Similar to the production of ceramics, both belong to powder sintering, so they can also be used for the preparation of ceramic materials.
