R&D / Prototyping Capability

Custom engineered services and products are available at SMPM. They include but are not limited to designing materials to meet specific applications, testing materials to provide P/M alternatives, and providing slugs for material analysis or machining (or we can even machine and provide prototype parts without the tooling expense). In recent years we have gained valuable experience converting parts to P/M previously produced by other metal forming techniques which rely on using labor intensive processing, and precision machining, with a lot of wasted material.

The production process here is "chipless" with nearly all of the raw material being turned into parts, this is possible because of our ability to press sophisticated geometry and maintain strict tolerances producing net shape.

The variety of materials to select from is unlimited, we can custom blend any metal powders to target your unique requirements and then provide test data to compare with established materials or construct testing equipment to closely reflect the application.

We feel that powder metallurgy is just beginning to see a growth mode and is going to become very popular not just for saving customers money, but also for solving application and design issues because of its flexibility to target specific customer concerns.

Our Auto CAD system can provide detailed engineering drawings and our engineers can provide material data and specification conformance to help you turn your idea into metal.
