Metal injection molding uses pellets made of plastic binder and metal.
These are injected into a mold. Then the product is sintered to produce a 100% metal part.
OSE Relevance
- Using avilable MIM pellets - one should be able to convert these into 3D printing filament using a filament maker.
- If the binder is polypropylene, the filament can be printed in a high temperature 3D printer chamber.
- The part produced can be sintered to get a 100% metal part.
- Thus, here is a way to generate 3D printing filament-based full metal 3D printing in any metal.
