Umicore provides a specialized selection of materials optimized for metal injection molding (MIM), including spherical carbonyl iron powder, nickel powder, tungsten powder and ready-to-be-compounded high-density alloys. MIM is a cost-effective process for producing small, complex components in both high and low volumes, with the versatility to mold metals, ceramics, intermetallic compounds and composites into intricate shapes.

Unlike traditional powder metallurgy (PM), which compacts powder in a rigid die before sintering, MIM can process nearly any metal powder, from low-alloy and stainless steels to superalloys and magnetic alloys, making it ideal for diverse industrial applications.
