The leading designer of processing, finishing and quality control solutions for the metal powder industry, Sacmi is sponsoring and promoting a "School of powder metallurgy" course, due to be held at Sacmi Imola on 9th - 10th June 2015. The aim of this course – offered without charge and organised together with the Italian Association of Metallurgy - is to provide industry operators with an opportunity to train/study in a field of metallurgy that regards the production techniques and processes used to make metal powders and the articles that can be obtained using such metal powders as a raw material.
The course covers a broad range of topics, from basic powder metallurgy to sintered items, from new trends in pressing to the influence of porosity on the characteristics of sintered materials; it will also illustrate industry-related thermal and thermal-chemical treatment processes and the key standards regulating the industry. The broad 2-day syllabus also includes, on the afternoon of 9th June, a guided tour of the Sacmi facilities where innovative metal powder pressing solutions (an area that has, over the last two years, proved to be one of Sacmi’s biggest in terms of added value and growth potential) are designed and developed.
By organising technical-scientific courses aimed at divulging specific knowledge, applications and market trends, Sacmi has given the long-standing AIM tradition of training and informing renewed impetus. AIM, in fact, is organising this second Italian edition of the course (similar to the one held in 2012) after a several-year hiatus from national events intended to further the understanding of materials and sintered components. Given the enormous success of the first edition, Sacmi has worked together with AIM to ensure – in keeping with the best international traditions of sharing scientific/technical information on metal powders – its continuity.
