Zusammenfassung
Pulverspritzgießen (Powder Injection Moulding, PIM) ist ein modernes Verfahren zur Herstellung von komplexen Bauteilen aus verschiedensten, sinterbaren Werkstoffen. Das Verfahren vereint die Formenvielfalt des Kunststoffspritzgießens mit der Werkstoffvielfalt der Pulvertechnologie zur Herstellung von metallischen, keramischen oder Hartmetallbauteilen. Anhand von Bauteil- und Werkstoffbeispielen werden die Anwendungsbereiche des PIM-Verfahrens erläutert und die neuesten Entwicklungen im Bereich Mikro-PIM präsentiert.
Abstract
Powder injection moulding (PIM) is a modern process for producing complex-shaped components from various sinterable materials. The PIM process unifies the design flexibility of plastic injection moulding and the material choice of powder metallurgy to produce net-shape metal, ceramic or hard material parts. Using examples of products and materials, the various fields of application of PIM are shown and the newest trends in micro PIM are presented.
