Sintered metallic materials
Sintered materials Are produced from metallic powders steel / copper / tin / aluminum, which are pressed under great power into required shapes and in next process sintering are bonded into a new material with very high strength. Sintered metallic materials
Advantages of powder metallurgy: Possibility to create complicated shapes (geared wheels, shapes, parts of absorbers etc.) Possibility to make self greasing / benefit of porosity / sliding gearsDimensional accuracy gain by precision tools for pressing and calibrationComplete usage of entry material (without waste) High efectivity in manufacturing of large series
Sintered metallic materials
Disadvantages of sintering technology
Great press force is required Press moulds are expensiveSize of products is limited due to pressing force and smaller net densening inside large products Shape difficult parts with transversal holes or threads are not possible to press out.Sintered metallic materials
Technological process:
1. Production of metals powder 2. Mixing of press mixtures to achieve required chemical-physical properties of final product 3. Pressing pressed powder has geometrical shape of the final product 4. Sintering is made in an Oven with protective atmosphere at max. temp. 1140 deg. 5. Final operation depends on product applicability: - calibration - conservation - saturation- honing- machining
Sintered metallic materials
Powder manufacturing
Powders are produced as follows- Physical milling and crushing, is used mainly for Cu, Fe, Al, Cr, Mn- atomization of liquid metal by air or water mainly for Pb, Zn, Sn, Al, Fe- steam condensation used mainly for Zn, Cd- chemically based on ore reduction is used with Cu, Ag, Fe, Ni, Co, W, Mo, Ti.
Sintered metallic materials
Powders treatmentMostly by - powder reduction after their manufacture by spraying air - powder drying off after their manufacture by spraying of water- screening and classification of powder according to size of particles - addition of other parts in accordance with production special requirements - grease addition to improve pressing
Sintered metallic materials
Powder pressingPurpose is to achieve partly compact basic shape of final product before sintering. Pressures therefore move in a range of 200 to 2000 Mpa. Strait-forward pressing can be - one sided (pic. a)- both sided (pic. b)- from all sides (pic. c)
Sintered metallic materials
At rolling - powder from holder entry between rolls, which press and compact it. Product are rods or strips
At extrusion through calibrated opening produce semi-products of rods shape. Sintered metallic materials
Powder Sintering Sintering we understand a heat influencing on semi-product made in previous operation compacting. Sintering temperature depends on composition of coupled material. In a case of semi-product sintering made from a single material, the chosen temperature is about 80% of its melting temperature. Joining of powder particles is by diffusion. Sintered metallic materials
SinteringDue to danger of oxidation is sintering made in protective atmosphere. CalibrationSintered products have satisfactory dimensional accuracy and surface quality. At a very high accuracy requirements a high precision calibration form is used. Sintered metallic materials
