Powder Metallurgy Processing

Strongwell’s Powder Metallurgy Technology uses metal powder as the raw material and forms products through compaction and sintering. Its most notable application is in the production of metal gears. This is attributable to the many advantages of powder metallurgy. For instance, it is ideal for producing large quantities of identical parts. The compacted blanks can be pressed into near net shapes, minimizing subsequent machining processes. This maximizes material utilization, reduces costs and makes it especially suitable for components that are difficult to machine.
