After successful completion of the course, students are able to describe and link the powder metallurgical processes (powder production, compaction, sintering, post-processing). They can classify the modern methods of powder injection molding and metal powder printing in the process and judge their advantages and disadvantages.
Manufacturing and treatment of powders; consolidating and shaping by cold, warm hot pressing; uniaxial vs. isostatic compaction; fundamentals of sinering with solid and liquid phase; industrial sintering, furnaces, atmospheres Special consolidation techniques (powder injection moulding, rapid prototyping; extrusion, powder rolling) Secondary operations exclusively for PM (siting, repressing, infiltation) and adapted for PM (heat treatment, surface hardening, machining, joining) Relationships microstructure - properties Applications for PM materials and products, economical relevance
