Powder metallurgy products have been widely used in the ship

Powder metallurgy technology is a highly efficient, energy-saving new technology, occupies the important position in the economic development. In recent years, powder metallurgy products industry developed rapidly, as technology changes constantly updated, powder metallurgy industry development prospects will be more vast. Powder metallurgy gear can be used in all kinds of hull pump parts, such as piston, filters, etc., the Marine diesel engine parts can be manufactured by powder metallurgy technology.

Due to the complexity of the Marine equipment, operating environment harsh and the installing space is narrow, many equipment parts replacement is very difficult, therefore required equipment has the very good wear resistance. Powder metallurgy gear of oil self-lubricating material with its excellent self-lubricating function, under the condition of all sorts of use has the excellent properties of high temperature resistance. Compared with the traditional craft material, made of powder metallurgy materials have the fine qualities, is very ideal Marine structural materials.

The needs of the powder metallurgy industry is huge, and powder metallurgy gear is huge demand by the shipbuilding industry, these are the factors stimulating the development of powder metallurgy industry. Powder metallurgy is a new technology of comprehensive utilization and can regenerate, it is the key to solve the problem of the new material.

Due to the intense market competition, some enterprises are also changed from competition to cooperation. As companies continue to strengthen the quality of the products and technology innovation, the future of powder metallurgy technology in China will be able compete with the international big companies.

The global consumption spherical powder for 3D is growing rapidly

3D printing is one of powder metallurgy processing technology. At present, powder metallurgy technology has been widely used in transportation, machinery, electronics, aerospace, weapons, biological, new energy, information and nuclear industry areas and so on, become one of the most active branches of the new material science. Powder metallurgy market in China in 2001-2014 annual compound growth rate reached 21.7%.
3d printing as a most important part of the powder metallurgy molding process, the market space is also in the rapid ascent. In 2017 the global 3d printing used spherical powder consumption has reached more than 800 tons, the estimated consumption years of spherical powder could exceed one thousand tons in 2018.
Titanium powder is the most important metal raw material in 3d printing and is also the highest technical difficulties, in areas such as aerospace, Marine, medical treatment still has a broad market space for development. Qualified 3d printing spherical titanium powder processing is difficult, the yield is low, only a handful of companies can provide relevant products.
