Sintering presses

From powder to a solid workpiece

Sintering presses can be used to manufacture solid components out of powdered initial materials using pressure and temperature. In the past, the process was used primarily to manufacture ceramics. Fine-grained ceramic materials, and today metal powder or plastic granulates as well, are pressed into a solid material under high pressure and at high temperatures. The individual powdered components bond to form a solid material. The first step of production produces what is called a green body. The green body is already in the shape of the final product. However, it can be processed further. Specialized geometries or drilled holes, for example, can be added. Then the product or component is compressed and hardened below the melting temperature. Sintering presses are used to produce products out of ceramics, metals, or plastics that can be manufactured with a high level of dimensional precision and reproducibility in automated process sequences.

Learn more about the sintering process:

 

Sintering can be used to manufacture parts from initial materials that would be difficult or impossible to combine in any other manner. The product range includes simple semifinished products, as well as high-performance components for the aviation and aerospace industry. Sintered metal parts are used in gears for transmissions or engines, for example, in the automotive industry. Electric appliances can also contain sintered parts made of metal or ceramics. Sintered parts are used in technical ceramics in switch cabinets as insulating ceramic elements. The production characteristics of ceramic materials include their good thermal conductivity and high temperature resistance. In addition, they make good electrical insulators. Their applications are almost limitless. 

 

Plastic granulates and powders can also be sintered. Polyamides or PTFE (polytetrafluorethylene) are examples of such materials. They can be sintered into semifinished products through pressing and heating, or directly into high-quality components for technical applications. Joos also delivers presses for any application in the plastics field.
