MIM vs. PM – Process Comparison & Selection Guide | ||
Item | MIM (Metal Injection Molding) | PM (Powder Metallurgy) |
Shape Complexity | ***** – Complex 3D shapes, fine | ** – Simple, mostly 2D parts |
Dimensional Accuracy | ***** – ±0.1–0.3% | ** – ±0.5–1% |
Density | ***** – Up to 99% | *** – 80–93% |
Strength | ***** – Near forging level | ** – Basic structural use |
Materials | Stainless steel, titanium, tool steel | Iron, copper, bronze |
Post-Processing | Heat treatment, HIP, plating, polishing | Basic heat treatment |
Tooling Cost | **** | ** |
Unit Cost (10K+ pcs) | **** – $0.3–3.0/pc | ** – $0.05–0.8/pc |
Batch Size | Medium to large | Medium to large |
Typical Applications | Medical, electronics, small precision | Gears, bushings, structural parts |
Best When | Complex shape | Simple shape |
High strength | Cost-sensitive | |
Tight tolerance | Medium strength | |
Note: For materials not listed above, including special materials or small batches, feel free to contact us for evaluation and recommendations. |
Selection Criteria | Recommended Process |
Complex geometry with undercuts, blind holes, or internal grooves | MIM |
High precision or fine surface finish required | MIM |
Parts need to bear mechanical load or require high strength | MIM (can be heat-treated/HIP) |
Cost-sensitive, moderate strength, simple shape | PM |
Large batch size and larger part dimensions (>30mm) | PM (MIM suits small parts) |
Iron-, copper-, or bronze-based materials with simple structure | PM |
Small, high-value parts in electronics, medical, or precision tool industries | MIM |
QC System | 100% inspection before shipment | |
Drawing format | CAD / PDF/ DWG/ IGS/ STEP | |
Packaging | Standard package / Carton box or Pallet / As per customized specifications | |
Testing equipment | CMM (Coordinate Measuring Machine), VMS, Height gauge, Caliper, Hardness tester, Roughness tester, Projector machine, Pin/Angle/Block/Plug/Thickness/Thread/Radius gauge, etc. | |
Trade terms | EXW, FOB, CIF, As per the customer's request | |
Shipment Terms | 1) 0-100kg: express & air freight priority | |
2) >100kg: sea freight priority | ||
