Injection molding technology is a near net shaping technology that is able to shape as requested ideally, economically, and only needs few or no post processing after sintering. This has become more and more important in the application of industrialized production of fine ceramic. In the fine ceramic industry, mainly use carbide, metal ceramic, inorganic non_metallic ceramics, oxide ceramic, intermetallic compounds, etc.
Take zirconia ceramic fiber pin for example, the post processing time could be greatly shorten if the green ware(blank) made by MIM technology. Due to the blank formed int he cavity has holes with a certainaccuracy, the subsequent grinding process is reduced to 1/3 to 1/4 of extrusion forming, so as to increase the production efficiency and reduce production cost.
Wearproof tool material in developing are Co base alloy, W base alloy, hard alloy, Al2O3_30 tic composite cutting tool ceramics, MULLITE (MULLITE), SiC, Si3N4, etc. Metal injection molding is also applied to other materials, such as SiC/Al composite materials, tool steel, titanium alloy, non_magnetic cemented carbide, W/Cu alloy, rare earth permanent magnet materials, KOVAR alloy, etc.
Magnetic materials such as soft magnetic ferrite , bonded permanent magnetic (such as NdFeB, SmCo, etc) is another vast field of applying technology.
