Advantages of Sintering in Producing Complex Shaped Bearings
Without any difficult machining work, sintering services make it possible for engineering customers to acquire complex geometrical parts profiles. The detail-heavy components exit the powder metallurgy equipment as perfectly identical compaction densified metal elements. That, then, is a big part of a bearing manufacturer’s motivation for adopting sintering technology. Of course, there’s also that self-lubricating […]
Role of Sintering Additives in Sintered Bearing Manufacturing
Remember, the sintering stage coalesces compacted metal objects. Pressed into shape by a die, heat is applied inside the sintering chamber. The metal doesn’t melt, but it merges and consolidates. By injecting special additives into this mix, we enhance this material coalescence phase. An increase in thermal energy temperature can’t duplicate this effect. As a […]
