What is MIM ? MIM (Metal Injection Molding) is a forming process which combines the injection forming and powder metallurgy technique.feed stock can bring the metal powder to the complex mold and form the metal powder, is mixed with plastic powder, the binding agent, to produce the feed stock. The molten feed stock then is…

Material Properties
MIM parts are widely used in many fields. Computer and consumer electronic products, medical tools are typical applications. Recently, MIM parts are used in bicycle parts. The hardness and mechnical properties are different among each other. Below listed frequently used powders for MIM application.
Moldflow Analysis (MFA)
What is Moldflow Analysis Moldflow analysis (MFA) is a computer assisted engineering application to emulate the molten material flow, fill and forming process behavior. With 3D mold geometry (runner, gate, core, cavity, venting and coolant route) and process parameter (temperature, pressure) and material property, MFA can help discover potential issues during the injection forming process…
