The GKN Sinter Metals List of Materials provides an over-view of PM alloys that are commonly used for powder metal structural components and self-lubricating bearings includ-ing selected material properties. Other compositions can be supplied by GKN Sinter Metals when agreed with sales and technology. Modifications and supplements to the material list will be introduced without reference or notification. This does not refer to the duty of information on the current sup-ply of parts. Additional information and references are given in the brochure related to special processes or products.

Remarks Referring to the Tables

The tables are divided into four main sections “Standard References I”, “Typical Properties (References)”, “Chemical Compositions (Standard)“ and “Standard References II”.

Admissible ranges of density are given in the section “Stan-dard References I” on the left.

The range of chemical composition is listed in the section “Chemical Compositions (Standard)”.

The section “Typical Properties (References)” contains in-formative values of selected material properties represent-ing a specified density value and a certain chemical compo-sition within the range specified in the section on the left and the right.

These properties should not be regarded as guaranteed properties in a legal sense.Informative property values have been determined on test bars (ISO 2740) in the as-sintered state; therefore they can-not be verified in the finished components. The use of micro tensile test bars cut out of a supplied component is not al-lowed nor can the tensile strength be deducted from a hard-ness measurement.

Many material properties are positively affected by subse-quent sizing or heat treatment. It is strongly recommended to inquire the consequences of these processes on mechan-ical and physical properties as well as on part dimensions from the supplying plant.

Determination of Properties

Mechanical and physical properties stated in the table’s have been determined on the basis of Sint Test Standards (DIN 30910 Parts 1, 3 and 4).Further details are given in DIN 30910 Part 1, Section 6. The chemical composition is determined according to the respective standards.Where these are not applicable, suitable test methods should be agreed.

1) In addition to the elements mentioned, further alloying elements up to 2 % are admitted.2) Case hardening or carbo-nitriding is perfomed depending on the required case depth and is in general followed by a stress relief operation as well.3) The surface density can be exactly determined by metallographic investigations combined with quantitative image analysis.4) The indicated surface hardness is determined after the surface densification but prior to a potential heat treatment. The increased hardness at the surface can be explained by work hardening due to the deformation of the material during the densification step.

The PM production technique excels when compared with the cost of other different metal shaping processes. Three important criteria characterize the process:

In spite of the fact that metal powder is more expensive than conventional steel, this difference is offset by the ad-vantage of nearly 100 % material utilization. This holds for the typical PM part of less than 1 kg in weight and also for heavier parts, whereas the initial weight of the conventional steel blank is much greater than that of the machined part.

The large amount of design capability leads to parts that may combine several functions in one component, often replacing multiple piece assemblies made by blanking or machining. For example, inner and outer gears, through and blind holes of varied profi les, and countersunk or stepped openings may be produced in a single shaping operation.

The effi ciency depends on the operating speed of the press, the fl ow properties of the powder and the height of the com-ponents to be compacted. The sintering costs are infl uenced by the required material quality, sintering temperature and time, protective atmosphere, but are fairly independent from parts geometry.

The parameters of the manufacturing process are deter-mined by the functional requirements of the component properties, related to the chemical composition, density and precision of the component. Cost comparison with competing technologies, such as stamping, cold extrusion, precision casting, precision forging and plastic moulding is strongly infl uenced by requirements of material, shape and production quantity.

The higher the requirements on material properties, the closer the tolerances required, and larger the production quantity the greater the advantage is for using a sintered component. Even when machining is necessary due to close tolerances or to geometry, the overall economics of a sin-tered blank often turn out to be favourable.

Although the PM shaping process is fl exible as to quanti-ties, initial investment in tooling requires larger production runs.

A further signifi cant advantage - the PM process saves nat-ural resources through recycling, conserves raw materials and the manufacturing process yields low emissions.

General Remarks

The sinter metal process covers a wide range of manufactured parts; from highly porous materials for fi lter applications, to full or near full dense components such as sinter forged engine and gear box parts.

Material Forming Processes

Conventional PM

The majority of PM products are manufactured using the “Conventional” method pio-neered in the 1930’s. Improvements in materials and processes has resulted in a new class of high performance, consistent, competitive and creative product.

Aluminium PM

New PM Aluminium materials developed by GKN are challenging paradigms about material performance offering a new option to engineers when weight reduction and performance improvement are priorities.

Porous Metal Filters

Filters and associated components based on GKN’s controlled porosity materials are depended on in a wide variety of demanding applications where traditional fi lters are unable to deliver the required performance.

Powder Forging

This process step creates a nearly full dense part with high dynamic loads by utilizing a closed die which creates high axial precision.

Page 25: Materials & Processes Brochure

25

II

Surface Densifi ed PM

A new PM technology that enables high density performance where required, without the weight penalty of fully dense products. This is an ideal process for complex, highly stressed gears requiring high performance and light weight.

Metal Injection Moulding

Delivering the three dimensional shape capability of plastic injection moulding com-bined with the performance of alloy steels, stainless steels and high temperature al-loys, MIM is uniquely positioned to solve extreme product challenges.

Sintered Bearings

Sintered self-lubricating bearings are indispensible machine elements. When used in typical applications, they are much more cost effective than roller bearings and even require less space. In contrast to plastic bearings, sintered bearings exhibit a pore vol-ume of 15 to 30 percent which serves as an oil reservoir for the entire lifetime.

Soft Magnetic PM

Growing demand for electric motors and electro-mechanical systems has highlighted a need for new design and material solutions. PM technology and new soft magnetic materials enable engineers to develop smaller products with improved performance.

1. Blending / Mixing

Raw material in powder form is mixed according to the specified composition. Prealloyed powders may be used as well as elemental powders.

2. Compaction

Compaction of components is carried out in specially designed tools. By selecting the compaction pressure usually in the range of 400 - 800 MN/m2, the density can be varied within wide lim-its.

3. Sintering

During sintering (heating under controlled conditions of time, temperature and protective atmosphere) the compacted parts obtain their mechanical strength. Sintering, which takes place below the melting temperature of the major constituent of the material, results in interparticle bonding without appreciably changing the shape of the component. During sintering diffusion and recrystallization occur.

4. Sizing / Forging

Sizing: Sintering may produce small dimensional changes in the compacts. Therefore, parts with very close tolerances, are sized in separate tools. The sized component has an excellent surface finish. Forging: To produce parts for extremely high duty applications a forging operation is carried out at high temperature instead of sizing at room temperature and with the advantage of no need for burr removal.

5. Finished Part

In most of the cases the production process ends latest after siz-ing / forging, leaving behind the finished part. However, if the customer requires closer tolerances or more complex shapes, GKN is able to fulfill these with auxiliary operations.

Part complexity requires sophisticated compacting tool de-sign, the use of core rods for holes, split punches and ad-justable powder fills for multilevel parts. For achieving uni-form density in the part, the respective motions of die and lower punches are calculated and programmed in the press operating cycle.

Even undercuts can be produced with a special technology being invented by GKN Sinter Metals.

In most cases, tooling is made from high speed steel or car-bide, and the life time may range from 10,000 to millions of parts, depending on complexity, materials and tolerances.

The Compacting Tool

For the production of the PM components, the metal pow-der must be compressed so that the individual particles will cold-weld at their contact points to make a part of sufficient ‘green’ strength to be handled and of a density great enough to meet specified properties. The design and quality of the compacting tool must be such that the part will be, after sin-tering, of the desired strength and dimensions.

In the most simple case – for a tablet shape – the tool con-sists of a die, and an upper and lower punch. Individually controlled press movement of these tool components con-trols the powder fill, compression stroke, and part ejection.

Principle of PM-Tools - Dimensional Accuracy

The process of axial compaction offers a wide variety of shaping possibilities and leads to excellent reproducibility of the dimensions. The shaping of a sintered component is essentially defined by the tool design and its manufacture.The appropriate lay-out of the component’s geometry and selection of the suitable material according to the PM pro-cess has a strong influence on tool life and -consequently- on the price of the part. It is therefore worthwhile to consider some of the guidelines of design related to the PM process. The specific forming parts of a tool are a die, core rod, upper and lower punch. The most important options in the design of a compacting tool are demonstrated in figure 1.The die creates the outer shape of the component. It may have any geometry. Steps or slopes are possible in the axial direction. Bores and apertures in the direction of compact-ing are shaped by core rods, which also may be contoured. The face contours of the parts are shaped by punches. Sharp chamfers or sharp junctions to the area of the outer surface have to be avoided. Steps of max. 15 % of the final compo-nent height can be produced without split punches.

To avoid tooling problems a minimum wall thickness of 2 mm should be maintained. The following aspects are im-portant for the ejection of the part from the die:

Ejection draft angles on profile of the outer surface • are not necessaryFace contours should have draft angles of less • than 7°Junctions and edges should have radii when formed in • the die

Possibilities to press threads, grooves and bores perpendic-ular to the compacting direction are very limited and most often need to be added as secondary machining. However due to a special GKN owned technology undercuts are very possible to a certain extent. The design guidelines are shown on page 34.

Dimensional Accuracy

GKN Sinter Metals endeavours during the development phase to find a custom tailored solution for production runs and offers components fulfilling exactly the requirements of dimensional accuracy and performance.The design and manufacturing of the tools directly influence the tolerances of the components. Tolerances of shape and position are mainly influenced by the tool assembly. They are governed by the clearances between punches and die or punches and core rods respectively. For parts with several split punches (multi level parts) the clearances add up to re-duce the total accuracy. Tolerances in height are influenced by the stiffness of the compacting or sizing presses and are typically between 0.1 and 0.2 mm. Closer tolerances as de-scribed above (Figure 2) can be attained by additional ma-chining operations. The small distortion caused by sintering process can be corrected by sizing (cold repressing) of the parts. Depending on density and material of a part an im-provement of the dimensional quality can be achieved from e.g. ISO/IT 8-9 to ISO/IT 6-7. An additional advantage of the sizing step is the increase in density and improvement of the surface quality. Additional influences on the dimen-sional accuracy of a component are caused by subsequent surface or heat treatment operations.

Today surface qualities on sintered parts are often still de-fined by Rt, Ra or Rz using values that seem to be based on experiences with machined surface qualities on non porous materials.

Due to the special (porous) structure of PM components the surface measurement with current measuring devices ac-cording to DIN EN ISO 4287 und 4288 is misleading and does not reflect the high quality of sintered surfaces. Hence deep pores may create extremely high Rt values even though the surface is plateau like and thus contains extraordinary well gliding properties.

By comparing profiles of surfaces from machined parts with porous PM components it becomes obvious that PM mate-rials offer without doubt an improved surface smoothness although the Pt values from the compared St 50 vs. PM mea-surement plots are almost identical.

Due to the special surface properties of sintered parts it is therefore recommended to define roughness in Rpk and Rk (see ISO 23519). The adjoining pictures and table 1 serve to illustrate this.

Design Guidelines II

1. Axial tool design: fixed fill volume considering the fill factor

2. General design guidelines

Limiting case for components with shoulder

Width / height ratio Shoulder thickness / length ratio

Max. overhang: ratio b / h ≤ 5 depending on:

the powder’s edge strength• component density• shoulder geometry•

Factor 5 only applies to a rotary symmetrical shoulder without profile. All influences that increase wall friction (e.g. gear teeth) reduce possible overhang.
