How Do Manufacturers Achieve Self-lubrication in Sintered Bearings?
Sintered bearings, also known as powdered metal bearings, are made by compacting and sintering metal powders to create a porous structure. Now, to ensure their performance and longevity will be optimised, they should undergo self-lubrication. Self-lubricating capabilities, after all, make sure the bearings will maintain a consistent and reliable lubricating film despite being utilised in […]
The Popularity of Aluminium-based Powders in Powder Metallurgy
Powder metallurgy converts metals like aluminium and others into metal powders to generate components and products needed by various industries. It involves compacting metals into powders under high pressure and sintering them at high temperatures. This process can provide tons of advantages over traditional manufacturing processes. One, it can effectively generate flexible designs. It can […]
