Data Type: Exhibition Panel For those struggling with cutting processing, precision casting, and lost wax! An eco-friendly manufacturing method that reduces material waste and contributes to SDGs. 'MIM (Metal Molding)' is a manufacturing method that combines plastic molding and powder metallurgy technology, allowing for the easy shaping of "complex geometries" in metal. The runners and sprues generated during molding can be reused. The high degree of freedom in shaping with molds allows for the sintering of hundreds to tens of thousands of pieces, depending on size, making it excellent for mass production. 【Features】 ■ High freedom of shape and material ■ High dimensional accuracy ■ Strong mechanical strength ■ Easy post-processing ■ High mass production capability ■ Low manufacturing costs *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
