Powder metallurgy densitometer is particularly important for density detection of formed and sintered bodies due to the significant impact of the pore structure of powder metallurgy on the physical properties of the powder, and the fact that powder metallurgy products are mainly identified based on their requirements such as bulk density, wet density, apparent porosity, and oil content.
Based on the characteristics of the powder metallurgy industry, the specially developed electronic powder metallurgy densitometer has been widely used in the powder metallurgy industry. Only two steps are needed to directly read the density value, saving a lot of testing time; Compared to labor costs, a single investment can save time and labor costs for up to ten years.
The density resolution of the powder metallurgy densitometer is to three decimal places: 0.001. For users in the general powder metallurgy industry, it can meet the density testing requirements of most industries. The results displayed by the powder metallurgy densitometer include: density, volume, volume percentage, density maximum value, density minimum value, density average value, etc.
Powder metallurgy densitometer manufacturer discusses the mixing process of powder metallurgy:
The mixing process of powder metallurgy refers to the process of homogenizing two or more powders with different compositions. There are basically two methods of mixing: mechanical method and chemical method. The widely used method is mechanical method, which mechanically mixes powders or mixtures evenly without chemical reactions. Mechanical mixing can be divided into dry mixing and wet mixing, and dry mixing is widely used in the production of iron-based products; Wet mixing is commonly used in the preparation of hard alloy mixtures. The commonly used liquid media for wet mixing are alcohol, gasoline, acetone, water, etc. Chemical mixing is the uniform mixing of metal or compound powders with salt solutions containing added metals; Alternatively, all components can be mixed in the form of a solution of a certain salt, and then treated with precipitation, drying, and reduction to obtain a uniformly distributed mixture.
Commonly added additives are plasticizers (such as gasoline, rubber solutions, paraffin, etc.) used to improve the strength of the compact or prevent powder component segregation, and lubricants (such as hard acid zinc, molybdenum disulfide, etc.) used to reduce friction between particles and between the compact and the mold wall.
