Titanium and Ti6Al4V parts processed by metal injection moulding

Titanium and titanium alloys are excellent materials for biomedical applications because of their high specific strength, low density, good corrosion resistance and biocompatibility. A growing demand of the industry for low-cost processing of complex parts is the driving force for the development of new fabrication techniques. Recent advances in the production of high quality base-powders made of powder metallurgy a good alternative. In this work, net-shape manufacturing of Titanium and Ti6Al4V parts has been performed by powder injection moulding.
