Together with the H+E-Produktentwicklung GmbH in Moritzburg, Saxony, Germany, the Fraunhofer Institute for Manufacturing Technology and Advanced Materials IFAM in Dresden, Germany, has developed a true-to-scale gas turbine that impressively demonstrates the current potentials and limitations of powder bed-based additive technologies. The technology demonstrator "Siemens SGT6-8000 H", a scaled model of a gas turbine for power generation on a scale of 1:25, was completely manufactured with additive processes except for the shaft.

The World Congress on Powder Metallurgy and Particulate Materials (WorldPM2020) only happens every six years in North America. This global event brings together global powder metallurgy (PM) leaders for three conferences sintered into one global event in Montreal, Canada, June 27–July 1, 2020
The annual Basic Powder Metallurgy (PM) Short Course wrapped up its 55th session last week with 74 students in attendance. This year’s course was held August 12–14, and received excellent feedback from attendees, with over 100% stating that they would recommend the course to others.
The Metal Injection Molding Association (MIMA), a trade association that promotes metal injection molding (MIM) powders, components and products, is proud to announce the launch of its newly redesigned website at www.mimaweb.org. The new site features a modern design, improved functionality, and resources for potential MIM end users.
The first self-sustaining residential home to use Hy2Green, a carbon dioxide–free energy supply system developed by GKN Powder Metallurgy, is officially in use. The energy storage system utilizes metal powder to hold hydrogen as an energy source. The residence, located in South Tyrolian Alps, is not connected to a public power grid.
