Advantage of using MIM technology:
Can produce,in both large and small volumes.
1.Small&complex shaped components.
2.Metal parts of high melting point alloys.
3.Parts with are difficult to make by other methods.
4.Significant reduction in the number of processing steps,lead time .
Application for MIM technology:
MIM technology is widely used:I n the USA,Japan and European countries.
1.In different industries ranging from automotive ,medical,chemical ,computer hardware,electronic ,watches ,machine tols and others.
2.For materials like stainless steel and titanium.
3.Principle can be extended into ceramic injection moulding (CIM)
