Metal Injection Molding (MIM)

Metal Injection Molding (MIM)

If you want to manufacture small parts with high strength and precision requirements, Unison Tek can help you manufacture them through the MIM process.

What is Metal Injection Molding?

Metal Injection Molding (MIM) is an advanced manufacturing technology that combines plastic injection molding technology with powder metallurgy technology. It is an efficient and cost-effective manufacturing method, especially suitable for manufacturing small, complex, high-performance metal parts.

In addition, for other machining process: CNC Turning Parts, CNC Milling Parts, Stamping Parts. Please also visit our machined parts we made Machined Parts.

Process

Traditional powder forming is mainly cold pressing and equal pressure forming. MIM uses finer metal powder than traditional powder metallurgy, and is formed in a similar plastic injection method. After sintering, the density and strength are higher than traditional powder metallurgy.

Processing for Metal Injection Molding

Advantage

 

1. High complexity and design freedom

MIM can create very complex and detailed shapes that are often difficult to achieve using traditional machining techniques.

 

2. High precision and surface finish

MIM enables very high dimensional accuracy, typically reaching a tolerance range of ±0.5%. And the final part usually has a good surface finish, reducing the need for subsequent processing.

 

3. Material diversity

MIM works with a variety of metals and alloys and can also handle specialty materials, such as high-melting-point metals and high-strength alloys, that are often difficult to form using other methods.

 

4. High material utilization rate

Compared to traditional machining methods, MIM offers higher material utilization while reducing material costs.

 

5. Mass production

MIM is ideal for high-volume production, using molds to ensure consistency and repeatability of each part, making it suitable for demanding industrial applications.

 

6. Superior mechanical properties

Sintered MIM parts typically have high density and mechanical properties, reaching 95% of the strength of ordinary materials.

 

7. Environmental protection

Compared with some traditional processing methods, the MIM process consumes less energy and reduces material waste due to high material utilization.

 

8. Improve efficiency

The MIM process can design multiple parts into a whole, reducing assembly steps, assembly costs and time.
