MIM Metal Powder Injection Molding: Application in 3c Electronics

The application of MIM process in 3C electronic products, including the specific application of MIM process in the production process of mobile phones, computers, tablets, notebooks and other products. This article summarizes the advantages and current problems of MIM process and explores the direction of future development.

Application of MIM process in 3C electronic products

Manufacturing of mobile phone shells

Mobile phone shells are an important part of mobile phones. MIM process can produce high-precision, high-strength and lightweight mobile phone shells. In the manufacturing process, the MIM process is first used to manufacture the injection molding blanks of the mobile phone shells, and then the blanks are placed in the mold for injection molding, and finally surface treatment and assembly are performed.

Manufacturing of card trays

Card trays are an important part of mobile phone electronic products. MIM process can produce card trays with high precision, high strength and light weight. During the manufacturing process, the MIM process is first used to manufacture the injection molding blank of the card tray, and then the blank is placed in the card tray mold for injection molding, and finally surface treatment and assembly are performed

Manufacturing of the shaft

Folding mobile phones are also a kind of electronic products. The shaft of its folding screen can also be manufactured using the MIM process. Some of the very precise parts require the use of the MIM process, and the MIM process accuracy can reach ±0.1%~±0.3%

Manufacturing of buttons

The buttons next to smart watches are also used for 3C electronic products, such as the buttons below, which are also manufactured using the MIM process.

Manufacturing of capacitive pen caps

The parts used in the capacitive pen equipped with iPad are also made using the MIM process.

Manufacturing of smart watch straps

Smart watch straps are a kind of 3C electronic products. The MIM process can manufacture smart watch straps with high precision. And through subsequent processing, exquisite products can be obtained.

MIM technology is a very advanced metal processing technology with broad application prospects in the manufacturing of 3C electronic products. Through the application of MIM technology, we can produce high-precision, high-quality metal parts, improve the performance and appearance quality of products, and enhance the competitiveness of products. At the same time, we should also pay attention to the development trend and technological progress of MIM technology, and continuously promote its development to bring more innovations and breakthroughs to the field of 3C electronic product manufacturing.

The development direction of MIM technology (metal powder injection molding) mainly includes the following aspects:

Improve production efficiency: improve the production efficiency of MIM technology and reduce production costs by improving equipment and optimizing production processes.

Develop more efficient materials: develop more efficient binders and degreasing agents to improve the density and strength of injection molded blanks.

Improve product quality: improve the precision and surface quality of injection molded blanks by improving processes and optimizing parameters.

Expand application areas: apply MIM technology to a wider range of fields, such as automobiles, aerospace, medical devices, etc.

These development directions are aimed at making MIM technology more widely used in multiple industries and further enhancing its competitiveness and market share.
