Metal Injection Molding (MIM) is a highly efficient manufacturing technique for producing complex metal components with excellent mechanical properties. However, not all materials are well-suited for MIM processing. One such example is 16MnCrS5, a case-hardening steel commonly used in traditional ma

Metal Injection Molding (MIM) is widely used in producing complex-shaped metal parts, particularly in industries such as automotive, medical, and electronics, due to its unique advantages. However, like any manufacturing process, MIM has certain errors that can impact the final product quality. Toda

IntroductionSurface densification is a crucial post-processing technique in powder metallurgy (PM) that enhances the mechanical strength, wear resistance, and durability of sintered components. By increasing surface density, PM parts achieve better load-bearing capacity, making them suitable for hig

IntroductionShot blasting is a critical surface treatment process in powder metallurgy (PM) that improves surface quality, removes impurities, and enhances mechanical properties. This process is widely used to improve the appearance, strength, and functionality of PM components, making them suitable

IntroductionCracking is a common defect in Metal Injection Molding (MIM) that can occur at various stages of the process, including molding, debinding, and sintering. If not properly controlled, cracks can compromise the mechanical properties and functionality of the final part. Based on extensive i

IntroductionIron-based powder metallurgy (PM) parts are prone to rust due to their iron content, especially in humid or high-temperature environments. Black oxide treatment is commonly used to improve surface corrosion resistance, but additional protective measures are essential for long-term durabi
