Benefits at a glance
Forming
The PIM process combines the forming process of injection moulding with the properties of metals and ceramics. For complex moulded parts in high-volume production.
Dispensable steps
With the PIM process, you can dispense with extra expensive assembly and joining steps. This allows you to work quickly and efficiently. Use the alternative to milling or eroding.
Economical
Another reason why powder materials might be of interest to you is that materials that are difficult to machine and therefore expensive, such as titanium, can be formed very cost-effectively.
Expandable
Do you have an ALLROUNDER in your company? Then in principle it is also suitable for powder processing. We tailor the technology to your individual requirements.

PIM laboratory
In our PIM laboratory, you can test all the important process steps – from feedstock and injection moulding to binding and sintering of the moulded parts.
Sample components
Heat sinks
Manufactured close to the final contour, bionically optimised heat sinks for LED lighting make use of the huge scope for forming offered by powder injection moulding.
Ferrules
Ceramic ferrules connect glass fibre bundles for data transmission. Precise execution of the through hole, which is only 0.125 mm in size, is crucial. CIM achieves tolerances of +/- 10 µm.
