FloMet MIM process delivers soft magnetics comparable to wrought materials.DELAND, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 4, 1994--Now designers have a new tool for many soft magnetic applications. The FloMet Metal Injection Molding The introduction to this article provides insufficient context for those unfamiliar with the subject matter. Please help [ improve the introduction] to meet Wikipedia's layout standards. You can discuss the issue on the talk page. (MIM MIM Metal Injection Molding MIM Mendelian Inheritance in Man MIM Mobile Instant-Messaging MIM Man in the Middle MIM Multilateral Initiative on Malaria MIM Metal-Insulator-Metal MIM Master of International Management MIM Made in Mexico ) process allows 2V Permendur and other iron-cobalt alloys This is a list of alloys for which an article exists in Wikipedia (or is proposed but not yet written). They are grouped by base metal, in order of increasing atomic number. Within these headings they are in no particular order. to be used as true engineering materials. Until recently these alloys were seldom used for two reasons: extreme brittleness Brittleness That characteristic of a material that is manifested by sudden or abrupt failure without appreciable prior ductile or plastic deformation. , making them difficult to form and their costs, making machining economically unattractive. Both problems are solved using FloMet's MIM technology. FloMet's MIM processing delivers complex three-dimensional shapes by using tooling similar to plastic injection molding injection molding n. A manufacturing process for forming objects, as of plastic or metal, by heating the molding material to a fluid state and injecting it into a mold. . The net-shape geometry achieved in molding eliminates the need to bend, stamp or forge these unforgiving materials. Further processing will densify the product to greater than 96% of the theoretical density. With very low levels of residual carbon nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur remaining after processing, the high purity and high density end product produces magnetic properties comparable to wrought materials. Now designers in a variety of industries have a new tool that until recently has only been on their wish list. CONTACT: FloMet, Deland Ted A. Tomlin, 904/736-4890 |
