Abstract

Metal injection molding is a new commercial process for producing complex component parts from steels and other ferrous alloys. The process combines the shape-making capability of plastic injection molding with high-temperature sintering technology to produce complex, high density metal parts with outstanding properties. The savings in production costs can be substantial over investment casting or expensive machining operations.
