1. About Powder Metallurgy
Powder metallurgy (PM) is a term covering a wide range of ways in which materials or components are made from metal powders. PM processes can avoid, or greatly reduce, the need to use metal removal processes, thereby drastically reducing yield losses in manufacture and often resulting in lower costs.
However Powder metallurgy products usually are difficult to machine. Many end users always try to find the cutting tools which have good performance on powder metallurgical products. Specific for this material, Halnn researched special grades.
