Technology of powder metallurgy parts near net shape powder metallurgy workers has long been one focus of the study subjects. Over the past decade, the study of new technology, new technology after another. These new technologies, the emergence of new technology to solve the short-flow low-cost powder metallurgy materials forming problems, greatly contributed to the rapid development of powder metallurgy parts. Currently, powder metallurgy parts manufacturing technology development is to increase density, reduce costs and complexity of high-precision near net shape parts mouth.
In 2000, Germany’s Fraunhofer Institute has developed one of these are known as the flow temperature and pressure of the short process of low-cost near-net shape technology. The temperature and pressure process technology-based and combines the advantages of metal injection molding technology. By improving the mobility of mixed powders, filling ability and formability, can 😯 ~ 130 , in the traditional press on the precision forming of parts with complex geometries, such as the vertical direction with a groove with the suppression of the hole and threaded hole and other parts. 2 without the need for subsequent machining. Flow temperature and pressure forming technology not only to overcome the traditional powder metallurgy forming a complex geometry in the gaps, but also avoid the high cost of metal injection molding technology is a great potential of new technology, has a very broad application prospects.
Flow temperature and pressure forming a new type of powder metallurgy parts, as near net shape technology, its main features can be summarized as follows: 1) forming parts with complex geometry flow using temperature and pressure can be directly formed with grooves perpendicular to the direction of repression, holes and screw holes and other parts, while the use of the shape of the cold manufacture of such parts is very difficult or even impossible, manganese powder the general need to complete the subsequent machining, CNC press to realize that the use of complex and precise movements , can only produce a relatively simple type of parts. Fraunhofer researchers used a special mold, the T-hole, hole, L-shaped cavity mold hole has been studied and successfully prepared a T-shaped parts. The results show that the well-mixed powder flow is sufficient to avoid cracks in the corner. Fraunhofer researchers have also used the shape with a slight taper to successfully direct the punch forming a deep blind hole parts, blind holes and wall thickness of the high rate of up to 3 to 7, the changes in wall thickness in the range of 1 ~ 3mm . Flow temperature and pressure can also be precision ground forming threaded holes. With the external thread of the bolt with a core mold after compaction, it will tighten the bolt out from the semi-finished products, and then sintering can be obtained thread. According to shrinkage by selecting the appropriate core diameter of the bolt thread can be suppressed without the required 2 machining.
2) The compacts of high density, density, temperature and pressure than the uniform flow of powder loading density as high, so after the semi-finished products by the temperature and pressure can reach very high density values. In addition to density, the powder flowability as well, forming parts and more uniform density. Or use a simple model red (no auxiliary floating red multi-axis model) can be multi-step forming of powder metallurgy parts.
3) the adaptability of materials Fraunhofer researchers conducted a variety of metal powder flow of warm compaction studies, have made a more significant results, including low alloy steel powder (Distolay AE), stainless steel 316L powder, silicon powder pure Ti powder and WC-Co hard metal powder. Flow temperature and pressure process in principle applicable to all the powder system, the only requirement is that the powder sintering must be good enough to eventually reach the required density and performance.
4) to simplify the process, reducing costs forming parts using conventional powder metallurgy method to suppress in the direction perpendicular to the grooves, cross holes and other shape, need to design very complex molds or 2 times after sintering machining to complete. Although injection molding technology in the shape of forming part of the complex and almost without any restrictions. However, due to large number of added binder, nickel powder in the heating process in part because of the influence of gravity to deform. Therefore, it often requires an additional more complicated and more expensive binder removal process, making the injection molding of high cost than conventional powder metallurgy technology, so the injection molding of parts may not be able to meet its design features to replace the conventional powder metallurgy parts to the application of injection molding technology has been somewhat restricted.
The flow temperature and pressure forming technology, either directly without the need for complex geometries 2 subsequent machining; the other hand, the flow temperature and pressure forming process, the use of a special binder and lubricant content is moderate, the configuration of the hybrid powder has a high viscosity and critical shear strength, the heating process does not occur in the deformation, which can be directly removed during sintering binder. Thus, the traditional powder forming process and injection molding process compared to current techniques for temperature and pressure forming of complex geometry parts, the only simplifies the production process, but also significantly reduces manufacturing costs.

D Printing technology has become an important part of many industries today. For example, many automobile manufacturers have a silent line of large 3D Printers running to make design prototypes under their offices. Small and medium design firms are getting their own desktop 3D printer that can fit along with other office equipment neatly, thus doing away with their need of outsourcing prototype-making work to other firms. The cost of a 3D Printer is still too high to become a part of a regular household, but it can lowered to such an extent as to make it a worthwhile expenditure for even smaller design firms.

Current trends in 3D Printing technology

Modern 3D Printers have become so small, streamlined, and efficient that it can be difficult to distinguish them from a photocopier in an office. This progress has resulted in the launch of 3D Printers that can fit into an office or even a desk, and it has happened very fast. Just a few decades ago, rapid prototyping technology had just taken off with the first machine that built a three-dimensional model based on a digital model file. Modern 3D Printing technology, despite its leaps, mostly uses the same technology where a printer head creates layer upon layer to form the final model. The printer head sprays the material over the base first, after which it applies adhesive over the layer so that the subsequent layer sticks to the previous one. Each layer has a different shape, and the gradual addition of every layer ultimately forms the three-dimensional model.

At present, 3D printing technology is mostly used by designers in various industries. In small and medium sized companies, designers often use a small printer to create prototype models for showing their customers or for testing and viewing the design in real life. A real model can help the designer get a better idea about the usefulness of the design. It can also help customers understand the design of a product and provide their input or approval before the final product is made, because some customers might not fully understand the designers idea by looking at two-dimensional pictures or a virtual model. To put it simply, 3D printing technology has already become very important for companies in several industries today. However, this technology is growing at such a rapid pace that it comes as no surprise that other companies are also seeing uses with it.

Future trends in 3D printing technology

The cost of 3D printers has already reduced from six figures to four or five figures in two decades, and this trend is expected to continue for the future. The low costs of these printers have already sparked interest in colleges and other academic institutes. In fact, some universities already use printers as a powerful teaching tool in various subjects.

It must be noted that 3D printing technology is just one facet of rapid prototyping technology. However, what sets 3D printing apart from other technology is that it has been more successful, and evolved at a faster pace than others have evolved.

A new era in technology for Gift and Loyalty Card Systems has arrived! Is your business caught up in expensive transaction swipe fees and monthly service fees? Would you like to own and control your database of patron information on YOUR computer? Read on.

Remember the old technology? Merchants who want to implement a plastic magstripe gift card and/or loyalty card system must use a credit card processor or a company who used similar, credit card based technology. It was, and remains, a very expensive way for merchants to process these types of cards. The expense comes in the form of transaction swipe fees ranging anywhere from $.08 per swipe to as high as $.35 per swipe as well as additional monthly fees of $40 – $100.

About ten years ago, some technologists started to take a fresh look at this expensive, fee riddled approach. They began to ask, why not use the computer-based technology that many merchants already have? Back then, almost 70% of the merchants in the U.S. had a computer on site. That number has grown substantially since then with the trend towards lower prices for computer hardware and software.

As a result of the research, today a new technology is available to process gift & loyalty cards in a much more cost effective manner that challenges, if not eclipses, the standard credit card technology. Not only is this new pc-based technology cheaper to own and operate, but it has allowed the merchant to own and control their own database of patron information on their own computer(s)! No more transaction swipe fees, monthly fees, database management fees, etc. associated with the traditional credit card based technologies on the market. The new pc-based technology is not limited in form and function as the credit card based technology where some processor owns and controls the patron data for the merchant. With the pc-based approach, the merchant is not limited to just a set number of management reports that he/she has to go to a website to generate often times for a fee. Instead, a report generator is commonly available which allows the merchant to group and sort an almost infinite number of reports with the click of a few buttons a very important tool to allow management to analyze the effectiveness of their card programs and to improve them if necessary. Theres nothing like accurate and instant feedback to make good, informed management decisions!

Local computer-based card systems are not just limited to gift cards and loyalty cards. There is no limit to the card-based applications that can be written into software such as this. A whole suite of card-based functions is available to allow merchants to better market their businesses to their clientele without all the credit card overhead. Examples include: reloadable cash cards, promotional cards, patron refund cards, courtesy comp cards, employee discount cards, etc. So with a local pc-based system, the merchant can expand the use of these popular, money-making cards to many other applications other than just gift & loyalty. One very highly used function is for promotional cards.

Since the merchant has the database of patron names and addresses on their computer, instead of on some credit card processors central server in Des Moines, the merchant can easily send out or hand out cards to their customers prompting them to come into their store(s) to get their card swiped to find out what they won. This is kind of a mystery card promotion where the customer could win e.g. anywhere from $5.00 to $100.00 or perhaps the card is like an electronic coupon card where a percentage off of some goods or services are offered. This has proven to be extremely effective in getting old customers back or also in finding new customers when cards are sent out via a mailing list which can be purchased inexpensively. And inexpensive is the key word. Depending on volume, a mailer with an attached card with a magstripe or bar code and the recipients name and address can be printed and mailed out for $.15 – $.30 each, plus postage. This is certainly a small price to pay to get customers to come through a merchants front doors and who will almost always spend a lot more than that!

When evaluating pc-based card systems, its always best to keep future needs in mind. As a business grows, so will the database of customers who have cards. So its important to choose a commercial strength software product which has database architecture sufficient to handle a large amount of data, for example, Microsofts SQL database. There are some pc-based card systems out there which fall short in this regard and utilize desktop databases like Microsofts Access database. Merchants generally run into problems a couple of years down the road with these types of databases.

Also, for merchants who have more than one store location and/or have independent franchise owners, its important to choose a pc-based card system which has the capability of connecting stores together. This way, a patron can buy a gift card at one store location but have the freedom of using it at other locations. The same holds true for loyalty cards, cash cards, promotional cards, etc. This is usually accomplished by having a high speed internet connection at each participating store and software which can reconcile the transactions in order to determine what stores owe what to what stores. The premiere pc-based card systems will also be able to perform ACH (automated clearing house) functions so that the appropriate dollar amounts will automatically be debited and credited to the appropriate merchant checking accounts. This way, the merchants dont have to write checks to each other and have to do very little to manage their pc-based card systems except just watch the money roll in!
