Metal Injection Molding: The Revolution in Precision Components

At Tarsus Toner Dolum, we specialize in Metal Injection Molding (MIM), an advanced branch of powder metallurgy. This process combines the design freedom of injection molding with the strength and precision of sintered metal components.

The Process in Detail

The core of our method involves mixing fine metal powders (our 'toner') with a special binder. This mixture is injected under high pressure into a mold to create the most complex shapes. After injection molding, the critical sintering process follows, where the component is heated in a controlled oven. The binder evaporates and the metal particles fuse into a dense, strong, and dimensionally stable final product.

Materials & Applications

• Stainless steel (316L, 17-4PH)
• Low-alloy steel
• Copper alloys
• Titanium alloys

This technique is ideally suited for high-quality, complex components that are difficult or expensive to manufacture via traditional machining, such as in the medical, automotive, and consumer electronics industries.
