Powder Metallurgy is a manufacturing process that involves creating metal parts from powdered materials. The process typically includes mixing metal powders, compacting them into desired shapes, and then heating them in a furnace to bond the particles together. This method allows for precise control over the material properties and shapes of the final product. One of the main advantages of powder metallurgy is its ability to produce complex geometries that are difficult to achieve with traditional machining methods. Additionally, it can minimize waste, as excess material can often be reused. This technique is widely used in industries such as automotive and aerospace for producing components like gears and bearings.
