Most metal additive manufacturing technologies can be categorized to two main groups. Direct melting (usually laser based) and sinter-based powder metallurgy technologies. In this presentation several powder metallurgy technologies will be presented – from the matured high-volume press-based (PM) manufacturing technologies, via the younger metal injection technology (MIM) to a sample of the variety of the additive manufacturing technologies available today. All these technologies share a common challenge – the need to remove the binder that allows making the metal powder into the desired shape and to sinter the powder into a final metal part that has the needed measures and metal properties. Some of the major challenges and the common practices to negotiate them will be presented.
