Two big conferences—one big city! POWDERMET2018: International Conference on Powder Metallurgy & Particulate Materials, and the co-located conference AMPM2018, Additive Manufacturing with Powder Metallurgy, have launched their full programming online. The conferences will be held at the Grand Hyatt San Antonio, Texas, June 17–20, 2018.
MIM2018 will bring together the metal injection molding industry in just a few short days, March 5–7, in Irvine, California. This year's conference is set to be the largest in history with over 180 pre-registered attendees to date. Conference delegates representing 105 companies from 15 countries are attending technical sessions and a tabletop exhibition.
ASTM International, West Conshohocken, Pennsylvania, has announced F3301 - 18 Standard Specification for Thermal Post-Processing Metal Parts Made Via Powder Bed Fusion. This standard specifies the requirements for thermal post-processing of parts produced via metal powder-bed fusion to achieve the required material properties and ...
A new collaborative project to investigate powder metallurgy (PM) applications for astrospace has been initiated with the formation of a partnership between TWI, Airbus Defense and Space, and Nammo Westcott Ltd, ESR Technology, and the University of Birmingham.
The Metal Powder Industries Federation’s Industry Development Board has released another video in a four-part educational series on powder metallurgy. The "Conventional Press-and-Sinter Powder Metallurgy" (PM) video is hosted by industry leader John Engquist, FAPMI, past president of the Center for Powder Metallurgy Technology (CPMT), and covers an overview of conventional PM that includes a discussion on aspect ratio, a process overview, and the display of several PM Design Excellence Awards components as case studies.
