Any moving parts and components inside tools, machines, and other equipment pieces should be handled properly to ensure they can work optimally throughout their operating life. And one way to manage them optimally is by integrating them with bearings. Bearings are machine elements that can constrain the relative motion of moving parts to their intended […]
Sintered bearings are a type of self-lubricating bearing that are manufactured by compressing a metal powder into the desired shape and subsequently sintering it at high temperatures. The sintering process causes the metal powder to fuse, which creates a dense and durable material suitable for high-performance bearings. A lot of metal powders can be used […]
Metals can undergo a wide variety of processes to generate the needed parts and prototypes for various industries. One of the processes that can be applied to metals is powder metallurgy. Powder metallurgy is a manufacturing process that involves transforming metals into metal powders, compacting and shaping the said powders, consolidating and fusing them with […]
Industries can usually choose from a wide range of materials in manufacturing parts and products they would need for their operations. Some of these materials are metals, plastics, timbres, and synthetic elements. But one distinct material that more and more industries maximise today is metal powder. Metal powders come from solid metal materials that have […]
Metals are materials often used by a wide array of industries in producing parts and prototypes. The automotive industry, for instance, capitalises on engines, car chassis, and other components that are mostly made from metals. The electronics industry likewise uses metals in creating various parts of appliances, equipment pieces, and so on. But not all […]
