Handbook of Metal Injection MoldingAuthor(s): Donald F. Heaney\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Elsevier Science & Technology, United Kingdom\nImprint: Woodhead Publishing Ltd\nISBN-13: 9780857090669, 978-0857090669\nSynopsis\nMetal injection molding combines the most useful characteristics of powder metallurgy and plastic injection molding to facilitate the production of small, complex-shaped metal components with outstanding mechanical properties. The Handbook of metal injection molding provides an authoritative guide to this important technology and its [url] one discusses the fundamentals of the metal injection molding process with chapters on topics such as component design, important powder characteristics, compound manufacture, tooling design, molding optimization, debinding, and sintering. Part two provides a detailed review of quality issues, including feedstock characterisation, modeling and simulation, methods to qualify a MIM process, common defects and carbon content co.
