Integrating Sintering Facilities into MIM and Sinter-Based AM Operations

Metal Injection Moulding and industrial-scale sinter-based Additive Manufacturing facilities require a secure supply of industrial gases for use as sintering atmospheres.

In addition to cost considerations, a strategic view needs to be taken of how these gases are supplied or generated, what infrastructure is required to store them, and what the risks are in terms of health & safety and supply stability. In this article, David Wolff, Stefan Joens, Bryan Sherman, Mike Montesi and John Boyle outline the challenges and the solutions.
