Powder metallurgy (PM) gears have become the preferred solution for these critical applications, underpinning the automotive industry's advancement towards efficiency, reliability, and lightweighting.
Near-Net-Shape & High Complexity: The PM process can form gears with complex features in a single pressing operation, such as helical teeth, bevel gears, face cams, or composite structures with flanges. This drastically reduces the need for secondary machining, resulting in significant cost savings.
Excellent Material Utilization: Compared to traditional cutting methods, PM boasts a material utilization rate of over 95%, generating almost no waste, which aligns with the requirements of modern green manufacturing and sustainability.
Superior Dimensional Accuracy and Consistency: Using high-precision tooling, PM enables the mass production of gears with stable dimensions and consistent tooth profiles.
