Smartphone

Powder injection molding (PIM) can be used to produce metal components for smartphones cost-effectively on standard machines, as ARBURG has demonstrated with its partner BASF using frames and thin-walled smartphone backs as examples.

Innovative

Together with BASF, ARBURG produced segregation-free, thin-walled PIM housings for smartphones for the first time worldwide in 2016.

Cost-effective

Metal injection molding (MIM) offers a low-material alternative to the conventional machining of stainless steel, titanium or zirconium oxide.

High-quality

The mold with liquid-tempered hot runner produces very good surfaces that can be highly polished.

Whatever the requirement.
We'll find the solution.
