Metal injection molding (MIM) is a metalworking process in which finely powdered metal is combined with binder material to create a “feedback” that is then shaped and solidified using injection molding. The molding process allows high volume, complex parts to be shaped in a single step. After molding, part undergoes conditioning operations to remove the binder (debinding) and densify the powders. Finished products are miniature components used in many industries and applications.
