Characteristics of CIM components
- Extremely hard and wear resistant
- Bending strength up to 1200 N/mm2
- Highly temperature resistant
- High chemical resistance
- Biocompatibility
- Low specific weight
- Excellent insulators
Characteristics of MIM components
- Excellent mechanical properties (similar to cast or rolled steel)
- High density of 96 - 98%
- Gastight and pressurized due to closed pore space
- High surface quality
- Highly corrosion resistant
- After-treatments such as heat treatment, polishing, galvanizing, welding, soldering and machining are all easy procedures
