Die wall lubrication - Mark Thomason, Gassbarre Products Inc., USA

High density pressed powder parts are in demand for high strength structural and electromagnetic applications. Both applications require low porosity.

Technology is available in the form of a Die Wall Lubrication System.  This system allows for a reduction of admixed lubricant to affect the pore-free density of pressed parts.  The presentation will explore various applications to illustrate the addition of Die Wall Lubrication technology into the powder compaction process.
