Powder Metallurgy Workshops (PM 101)

Understanding Sintered Metals - Customized for Your Company

Atlas's Powder Metallurgy educational workshops are customized for each company's needs. Your team can explore powder metallurgy, understand the opportunities to advance current powdered metal designs, or evaluate parts for potential conversion from conventional machining to powdered metal manufacturing.

3 Simple Steps To Design Your Powdered Metal Workshop!

1. Customize Your PM Workshop

Part 1: Understanding Sintered Metals

Understand how Atlas utilizes their knowledge, experience, and new innovations to maximize the design capabilities of powder metallurgy (PM), compared to other metal forming technologies.

Through hands-on activities and targeted topic discussions including materials standards, molding and sintering, and secondary operations, you will realize the full potential of PM and gain fresh perspectives.

Part 2: Assessing a Part's Conversion Potential

Learn how Atlas' PM advancements have created opportunities for component conversions like the nut drive assembly (shown at right). Harnessing the design capabilities of powder metallurgy, Atlas was able to convert this three-component assembly into a single PM component. As a result of this redesign, our customer was able to save time and money.

This workshop segment will help you to learn how to assess a component's potential for PM and to understand the benefits of converting parts to PM.

Part 3: Extend Your Learning

Collaborate with your company team, to customize the final segment of your Powder Metal workshop to meet your design needs.

Add-On topics include:

• Stamping vs Powder Metal
• Machining vs Powder Metal
• Casting vs Powder Metal
