MIM technology can build more complex parts compared to other metal forming methods. Basically, all structures are achievable by injection molds can be applied to MIM.

MIM can be adjusted flexibly and it can also rapidly improve the yield, which varies from hundreds a day to hundreds of thousands a day.

The Utility of raw material used in MIM is close to 100%, which is a type of net forming technology, and can effectively avoid the waste of materials.

Generally, MIM can achieve accuracy tolerances ±0.5%. It can obtain an even higher dimensional accuracy once MIM works with other processing methods.

The surface roughness of MIM sintering green parts (Ra) can achieve 1μm. It can be obtained dazzling appearance by various surface treatments.

MIM physicochemical performance is also terrific because sintering density is highly close to the theoretical. For example, mechanical strength is significantly beyond traditional powder metallurgy.

Most of metal materials are functional in MIM, however, from economic perspective, applied materials mainly covers the iron-based, nickel, copper, titanium metal or alloy.

The most suitable wall thickness for MIM is no more than 6mm. Thicker outer wall is acceptable, but the cost will be increased due to the longer processing time and extra material used. In addition, ultra thin wall which less than 0.5mm is still possible to make, however, it requires strictly high standard for design.
