Metal Injection Molding (MIM) Auto Parts

Process: Metal injection molding (MIM)

Material: MIM-17-4 PH stainless steel age hardened to H900 specification

Density: 7.6 g/cm³

Tensile Strength: 1,190 MPa (172,000 psi)

This part was previously manufactured by conventional machining processes that were pushed to the limit to produce the complex shape. Metal Injection Molding (MIM) resulted in a cost savings of greater than 50%, plus the customer received consistent quality and on-time delivery—something lacking from the previous supplier.
