Mechanical properties of MIM parts
The mechanical properties of MIM parts were analysed according to ISO 2740.
MIM parts are sintered to almost full density. The remaining porosity consists of isolated, spherical, usually evenly distributed pores that are located beneath the part surface. Depending on the material, MIM parts can be heat-treated and their properties can be adjusted accordingly.
On this site you will find examples of the mechanical properties and the chemical composition of a few MIM materials. Many more materials can be processed by MIM, so please contact your MIM producer.
