Powdered Metal vs. Other Metal Forming


The powder metallurgy or sintered metallurgy process can offer a cost effective alternative to other standard metal component part processes such as fine blanking, investment casting, screw machine, cold forming, and CNC machining, just to name a few.  Our process offers “net shape” capability which minimizes costly secondary machining or undesired “process inherent” nuances. We have successfully converted several parts to the PM process, saving customer time and expense.


Compared to most other metal forming processes, you can expect:

  • Higher Quality

  • Higher Material Strength

  • Higher Design Flexibility

  • Lower Unit Cost

  • Lower Net Shape Cycle Time

  • Lower Scrap Loss

  • Lower Tooling Cost

  • Faster Delivery Time
