Is Powder Metallurgy Expensive?

How much does powder metallurgy cost per ton?

The most commonly used materials in the powder metallurgy industry are: iron-based, copper-based, copper-iron-based, alloy steel, stainless steel, etc. The cost of powder metallurgy depends on many factors, including the cost of raw materials, energy costs, labor costs, equipment investment costs, and production scale. The cost of powder metallurgy production usually includes the cost of raw material procurement, depreciation of production equipment and tools, energy consumption costs, labor costs, management costs, transportation costs, etc.

In addition, powder metallurgy also needs to take into account the subsequent processing costs, such as the costs of sintering, compression molding, heat treatment, etc. In addition, expenditures on quality control, environmental protection, compliance with laws and regulations, etc. will also affect the total cost of powder metallurgy.

1. General iron materials, or carbon steel, are priced at 15,000-30,000 yuan per ton depending on the size of the product.
2. The price of ferroalloys is 25,000-50,000 yuan per ton, and it should also fluctuate appropriately according to the gram weight, tolerance size, and complex structure of the product.
3. Powder metallurgy copper materials are mainly tin bronze, which are used in sliding sleeves or oil-containing bearings, and the price is 90,000-130,000 yuan per ton.
4. Stainless steel parts are used in accessories that have relatively high requirements for the use environment, such as locks, mixers, kitchen utensils, etc. The price is generally 85,000-130,000 yuan per ton. How much powder metallurgy costs per ton is also related to the batch size of the product. If the customer's demand is large, there may be a discount in price. Of course, you need to negotiate with the powder metallurgy manufacturer yourself.

How to choose powder metallurgy products?

Automobile powder metallurgy transmission gears are the basic mechanical parts that make up automobile transmissions, and they have high performance requirements. Therefore, there are many types of powder metallurgy products on the market, and the quality is mixed. How to buy high-quality powder metallurgy products is the most troublesome thing for consumers. Consumers' choice of powder metallurgy is still unclear, which makes many buyers headache.
1. Understand powder metallurgy products Before consumers buy powder metallurgy products, we should have a detailed understanding of some relevant knowledge about powder metallurgy products, such as production materials, manufacturing processes, applicable fields, etc., and then make choices based on our actual needs. We can tell our needs to the powder metallurgy product manufacturer and design and produce according to our needs.
2. Choose a powder metallurgy factory When we choose a powder metallurgy product manufacturer, we must choose a company with strong strength and good reputation, whether it has an authoritative qualification certificate, and whether it has an excellent technical team and equipment, because the quality of powder metallurgy products is proportional to the strength of the manufacturer. At the same time, the professional production equipment of formal companies can ensure large-scale production and meet our needs.
3. Field investigation We have to conduct field visits to the powder metallurgy product manufacturer. Only by understanding the details of the powder metallurgy product manufacturer in detail can we better understand the company's strength and what types of companies or manufacturers the manufacturer's customers are. This can also reflect from the side that this manufacturer is recognized by most companies in a certain aspect and has production and R&D experience in this regard. Combined with our own targeted selection of corporate products.
4. Product inspection Consumers can ask manufacturers to produce samples of products, and then carefully check what materials the samples are made of, whether they meet the standards, and whether they are environmentally friendly. Whether harmful substances exceed the standards, etc., do a good job of testing at each step.

In general, the cost of powder metallurgy depends on many factors and will change with market conditions, material prices, energy prices and other factors. Therefore, when conducting powder metallurgy production, it is necessary to comprehensively consider various factors and carefully control costs to ensure the efficiency and competitiveness of production.
