Injection Molding of Tool Steel Parts for Precision Manufacturing

  Tool Steel Metal Injection Molding MIM (Metal Injection Molding) Tool steel is a type of high-carbon steel specifically designed to be used to produce tools, dies, and cutting implements. It possesses exceptional hardness, wear resistance, and toughness, making it suitable for applications where tools are subjected to high stress, repeated impact, and abrasive wear. Tool steel often contains significant alloying elements like chromium, vanadium, tungsten, and molybdenum, contributing to its distinct properties. Tool steel metal injection molded parts shine in automotive, medical, aerospace, electronics, industrial machinery, and consumer goods applications. Their intricate shapes, precision, and durability make them indispensable in realms demanding high performance. Tool steel MIM parts carve a niche with advantages encompassing intricate geometries, superior precision, flexible material composition, minimal waste, and cost-effectiveness. Neway's proficiency in metal injection

Selecting the Right Stainless Steel Alloy for Metal Injection Molding Parts

Stainless Steel Optional for MIM The most commonly metal injection molded stainless steels are 304 and 316/316L due to their excellent corrosion resistance and easier fabrication. Precipitation-hardening alloys can achieve very high strength through aging but are more difficult to MIM. Some common stainless steel alloys are used in metal injection molding (MIM) , including: 304 Stainless Steel 316L Stainless Steel 17-4 PH Stainless Steel 420 Stainless Steel 440C Stainless Steel 430 Stainless Steel 316 Stainless Steel MIM-Stainless Steel Material Comparison Austenitic grades offer the best corrosion resistance, martensitic grades have the highest hardness and strength, and ferritic grades provide an economical option when hardness is not critical. Here is a brief comparison of standard stainless steel alloys used in metal injection molding (MIM): 304: Austenitic stainless steel. Excellent corrosion resistance and good formability. Lower strength and hardness. It is commonly used for con

How do You Provide High-Precision Custom Injection Molding Services

  Custom Injection molding Service Custom injection molding is the process of producing plastic, metal, or ceramic parts by injecting molten plastic material, metal powders, or ceramic powders into a mold that has been custom-made to the specifications of a unique part design. Unlike standard, off-the-shelf injection molds, custom molds are engineered and machined to precisely match each new plastic part's required shape, size, geometries, features, and tolerances.  Neway mainly provides the following three kinds of custom injection molding services: Metal Injection Molding (MIM) Service Metal injection molding service :  Metal injection molding is a versatile manufacturing process that allows the high-volume production of complex, high-precision metal parts. Some of the main benefits of MIM include the ability to produce small, intricate geometries that are difficult with other methods; producing near-net-shape parts to tight tolerances of ±0.3% while minimizing material waste; a

Injection Molding, Die Casting & MIM Create Bluetooth Headset Parts Like Earbuds, Battery Cases

  Hardware Composition of Bluetooth Headset Almost all the visible plastic and metal components, housings, buttons, fitting and decorative parts of a Bluetooth headset are manufactured using some form of injection molding for optimum aesthetics, ergonomics, quality, and cost. The internal electronics are then assembled and fit into these plastic molded structures. But it is mainly divided into three processes: plastic injection molding, zinc alloy die-casting, and metal injection molding. Plastic Injection Molding Parts The plastic injection molding accessories of the Bluetooth headset mainly include a thermoplastic injection molding body, such as a battery compartment, earplugs, sound insulation brackets, Etc. And thermoplastic injection molding accessories like Eartips, Protective Cases, Etc., details as follows: Earbuds: The earbud housing that goes in/over the ear is injection molded to obtain the desired shape that fits comfortably in the ear. Various plastics like ABS, polycarbo

Powder Metallurgy Enables High-Performance Sintered Gears and Self-Lubricating Bushings

  Sintered Gears Bushings Overview Sintered self-lubricating gears, bushings, and bearings refer to powder metallurgy components with porosity and impregnated lubricants to provide continuous lubrication during operation without needing external lubricant replenishment. Compared with solid gears, bushings, and bearings, they are lightweight, porous, self-lubricating, and high-strength. We usually use two kinds of powder metal manufacturing methods to produce sintered gears and self-lubricating bushings, namely metal injection molding and powder compression molding , which belong to the powder metallurgy process. Solid metal gear, bushings manufacturing methods The primary manufacturing processes for solid metal gears and bushings each offer distinct advantages. Gear machining allows high-precision profiling and finishing, but casting provides near-net shape capability. Forging improves strength through grain flow shaping. Bushing machining enables tight tolerances and surface finish
