MPIF: All You Need to Know about Powder Metallurgy

The PM industry is comprised of three major segments:

• Companies that produce the powders, lubricants, industrial gases and other raw materials that go into making finished components
• Companies that manufacture and provide the tooling, process equipment, and related services used in the making of finished components
• Contract and in-house fabricators of finished components
