“Opportunities for Powder Metallurgy” to be aired at the Hagen Symposium 2010

The 29th Hagen Powder Metallurgy Symposium will take place in Hagen Town Hall, Germany November 25-26, 2010, and will feature a number of technical presentations covering the theme ‘Opportunities for Powder Metallurgy’, as well as a substantial exhibition area. 

Hans Kolaska reporting on behalf of the organisers, Ausschuss für Pulvermetallurgie and the Fachverband Pulvermetallurgie, stated that more than 50 organisations had already booked exhibition space, and that around 250 delegates are expected to register for this annual German-language event. 

The technical programme covers the following areas of PM:

• Powder compaction technology (including simulation)
• The advantages of metal injection moulding (MIM) in relation to competing forming technologies
• The production of large near-net PM components by hot isostatic pressing (HIP)
• WC carbides with controlled shrinkage and coercivity
• Short-time sintering through ‘FAST-Sint’ technology
• PM Steels for automotive planetary gears
• Pressure rolling
• Extrusion of PM aluminium alloys

The 29th Hagen PM Symposium will also see the presentation of the Skaupy Prize for 2010 being awarded to Professor Bernd Kieback (Technical University Dresden and Fraunhofer Institut IFAM also in Dresden).
