Higher Density and Higher Performance by Single Pressing and Sintering

摘要

Further improvements are being developed in binder and lubricant technology that makes it possible to reach green densities approaching 7.4 g/cm~3 in some applications, without the need to heat the iron powder or to double press and double sinter. This paper outlines the progress of this research. The effect of die temperature and part length on ejection behavior and final properties has been studied. In addition, optimal processing parameters as well as mechanical data are presented.
