Abstract
Traditional applications for metal-injection molding have been small (less than 25 g) net-shape parts exhibiting design and economic benefits over wrought or cast components. Recently, AlliedSignal PowderFlo™ Technologies developed an aqueous-based binder system that can produce large, thick parts more commensurate with those produced by investment casting. Savings are achieved not only by eliminating machining and other processing steps, but also by reduced development and inventory costs.
