PM database adds nonferrous structural data

An European Powder Metallurgy Association product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Jan 15, 2007

The GPMD global powder metallurgy database has been refined and the amount of ferrous structural materials has been increased to a total of nearly 2500 lines of high quality data.

The groundbreaking online GPMD global powder metallurgy database was launched in 2004 as joint project between the world's three leading regional trade associations, the EPMA and its sister organisations in North America (MPIF) and Japan (JPMA).

Since that time the database has been refined and the amount of ferrous structural materials has been increased to a total of nearly 2500 lines of high quality data.

In the latest development launched this week an additional section containing nonferrous structural data has now been added, thus enabling access to the 5-10% of the PM market that relies on these materials.

The database has its own website and provides verified physical, mechanical and fatigue data for a range of commercially available PM materials.

The data are displayed in a user-friendly format with the useful ability to allow downloads of certain information to commonly used FEA packages.

A further extension of the database to cover MIM materials is currently under development and will be announced later in the year.

Users can register free of charge in order to access the database.
