ADDITIONAL SERVICES
Sintered powdered metal parts can be finished or treated to achieve desired characteristics such as corrosion resistance, improved strength and hardness, surface wear resistance, edge-sharpness relief, porosity sealing, and control of size and surface finish. Metaltech assists the customer in determining the most effective method for post-production finishing. Metaltech has in-house secondary processes, as well as contacts within the industry to enlist the service of subcontractors to produce the desired finished product. Because Metaltech is centrally located within the powdered metal industry, timely secondary processes can be easily contracted.
ENGINEERING SUPPORT
Metaltech offers engineering assistance on part design and development.
- Specifications are designed for each part.
- Finished dimensions are determined prior to production.
- Part designs and processes are designed for manufacturability.
- Designs are produced in CAD drawings (Autodesk Release 10) as well as with hand drawings.
The engineering department discusses the following properties with the customer to determine the best production method for each part:
- Strength Properties
- Ductility
- Apparent Hardness
- Particle Hardness
- Density
- Porosity
- Permeability
- Corrosion Resistance
- Surface Finish
- Sound Dampening
- Hardness
BENEFITS OF POWDERED METAL
Virtually no other manufacturing method matches the major benefits of Metaltech powdered metal:
- Cost Effective
- Raw material waste is minimized, which dramatically lowers cost.
- Parts are produced within close tolerances to reduce time spent on secondary operations.
- Part Customization
- Parts are designed in accordance with each customer’s specifications.
- Unique shape or strength requirements can be accommodated.
- Order Flexibility
- Short or long-run orders, ranging from 500 piece releases to orders in excess of 1 million pieces, are planned and executed with customer input.
QUALITY CONTROL
Metaltech has many in-house quality measures in place to ensure that the manufactured products meet or exceed industry standards. Some of the quality control procedures include:
- Use of the CMM – Coordinate Measuring Machine
- Inspection using Optical Comparator
- Assessment using Profilometer
- Additional typical destructive and non-destructive tests as required
All manufacturing processes implemented by Metaltech are geared toward zero-defect production.
