Sizing

Sizing involves reduction or increase in the dimensions of the component, and this action is performed by forcing the component into a die or over a core
Hardness of the part to be sized should not exceed HV 180 after sintering
Wherever possible, the various surfaces of the part should be sized progressively and not simultaneously
The external forms should be sized before the holes in order to prevent cracking

Conclusion: Principle, Advantages and Limits of P/M Technology
Advantages of P/M
Technology
– Low Costs at Series Production
– High Quality at Series
Production
– Net-Shape Technology
– Extensive Alloying Possibilities
– Weight Reduction Because of
Porosity
– 100% Raw Material Utilisation
– Low Energy Consumption
– Freedom in Profile Design
Limits of P/M Technology
– Density Dependent Properties
– Undercuts, Cross Holes and
Thread not Producible by
Pressing
– Maximum Weight of Component
1 kg
