Hot Isostatic Pressing

Metal powders are used as the starting material to produce high-quality, fully dense metal parts in Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP). The process involves subjecting the powdered metal components to high temperature and pressure within a sealed container filled with gas.

Metal powders used in hot isostatic pressing are available in a variety of materials, including

• Titanium and titanium alloy: useful in aerospace, medical implants, automotive, and marine equipment due to its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, and biocompatibility.
• Stainless Steel: useful in industries like automotive, consumer goods, and medical devices for its excellent corrosion resistance, toughness, and durability.
• Cobalt Chromium: utilized in dental and medical implant industries due to its high biocompatibility, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance.
• Nickel-based Superalloys: widely used in industries such as aerospace engines, gas turbines, and chemical processing equipment that require high-temperature strength, corrosion resistance, and oxidation resistance.
• Aluminum: used in aerospace, automotive, and marine where lightweight components with efficient heat dissipation are needed, thanks to its low density, good strength, and thermal conductivity.
