GKN Sinter Metals Company pressed iron powders using a compaction pressure of 600 MPa to produced a cylindrical bearing which is 70 cm long and has internal and external diameters of 8 cm and 16 cm, respectively. Determine (a) the most appropriate pressing direction, (b) the required press tonnage to perform this operation, and (c) the final weight of the part if the porosity is 12%, given that the density of iron, ρ = 7.87 g/cm3. Assume shrinkage during sintering can be neglected
What are the practical applications of powder metallurgy components? List at least four items produced by powder metallurgy.
In powder processing, a cylinder with a diameter of 2 inches and a height of 10 inches is to be made from fine copper powders. A single-action press is used for compaction. If the average density of the green product is 7 g/cm3 at the bottom half of the cylinder, estimate the compaction pressure at the punch surface. Assume no friction between the powders. The coefficient of friction between particles and containers is 0.2.

- QUESTION 1 (a) Powder Metallurgy (PM) has become competitive with processes such as casting, forging and machining, particularly for complex parts made of high strength and hard alloys. Compare the design considerations for products made of powder metallurgy, casting and forging process. Evaluate your observation. (b) Products made of sheet metals can be easily found around us. Identify some of the products in your automobile which are made from sheet metal, and discuss the process or combination of processes required to produce such products.arrow_forwardQUESTION 1 (a) Powder Metallurgy (PM) enables the processing of materials with very high melting points, including refractory metals such as tungsten, molybdenum and tantalum. Such metals are very difficult to produce by melting and casting and are often very brittle in the cast state. As a manufacturing engineer, state and explain at least SIX (6) limitations of powder metallurgy that is not applicable in particular engineering industries. In a case where you were assigned to use powder metallurgy in metal forming, justify at least THREE (3) PM requirements. (b) A coil of sheet metal is placed in a furnace and annealed in order to improve its ductility. Nonetheless, it is found that the sheet metal has a lower limiting drawing (LDR) than it had before the annealing process. Describe the meaning of LDR and explain the reasons for this behaviour by referring to the microstructure and materials' properties point of view for different types of materials. In addition, discuss the process…arrow_forward3arrow_forward
