3D metal moulding, also referred to as metal injection moulding or (MIM), is used to manufacture components with complex geometries. The process uses a mixture of metal powders and polymer binders – also known as "feedstock" – which are then injection-moulded. After moulding, the parts are thermally processed in order to remove the binding agent. They are then sintered to a high-density metal component which has mechanical properties comparable to wrought materials. Applications Benefits 3D metal printing
