PM Cost Savings
Economy Is One of P/M's Greatest Benefits

Not only are P/M parts stronger, more durable, and more versatile than traditionally manufactured parts, they're also more economical.

This combination of value and quality makes powder metallurgy the process of choice for a wide range of industries, from automotive and appliance manufacture to the production of lawn and garden implements, recreational items, and electrical items.

Saving Dollars By Eliminating Waste

.Because parts are formed by mixing, compacting, and sintering metal powders, it is a "chipless" technology and there is virtually no waste; typically, more than 97% of the starting raw material is in the finished part. This can add up to huge savings for our customers.

Fewer Manufacturing Steps

P/M also saves money by saving manufacturing steps - the additional assembly steps that are required by other metalworking processes can often be eliminated when parts are manufactured through P/M. And because P/M produces parts are typically produced at or very close to final dimensions, post-production machining requirements are either extremely minor or eliminated entirely.
