The part with Intricate profiles, Angular holes, Integrations and weight should be ideally 60grms with high volume requirements.

Metal injection molding is a special process in which finely powdered material is mixed with binder to create a feedstock and then it is injected to get a solidified complex shape in a very lesser cycle times compared to [...]

Yes, MIM parts can be heat treated & plated as done on a conventional machined, cast or forged product. INDO-MIM maintains in-house heat-treating and plating facilities to supply fully finished components. […]

MIM technology typically uses off the shelf machinery with proprietary enhancements. Indo-MIM uses state-of-the-art machinery with the latest controls for maintaining superior process output. Indo-MIM has built a strategic relationship with many of its US and European equipment suppliers to [...]

Typical MIM tolerances range from ± 0.3% to 0.5% of the dimension. However, tolerances are highly dependent upon product geometry. Tolerances beyond what MIM is capable of are achieved by post machining operations. Indo-MIM will help you with this analysis [...]

As with any technology, MIM has limitations. Product weight is limited to a maximum weight of about 240 grams (although economics generally push the weight limit to no more than 50 grams). Certain geometrical features can also present a problem [...]

There is nothing right or wrong here. As a thumb rule, if a drawing has more than 20 dimensions it may be a good part for MIM. […]

Generally, production volumes will need to be in excess of 20K pieces annually for a typical product. However, Indo-MIM will consider any annual production volume that will be economical viable for the customer. […]

Typical lead-time for tool building and sample submission is 8-10 weeks. However, shorter lead-times are possible depending upon the specific project requirements. […]

The best way to realize the full benefits of MIM is to apply the technology early in the design phase in your product development cycle. Indo-MIM will assist you in the application of MIM whether it is a new [...]
