Results for tag: "Spark Plasma Sintering"

Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) is a powder metallurgy process used to produce dense, homogeneous materials from metal and mineral powders. It is a rapid, low-temperature sintering process that uses an electric current to heat the powder, resulting in a denser material with improved properties. The process is used to produce components for a variety of industries, including aerospace, automotive, medical, and electronics. SPS is a cost-effective alternative to traditional sintering processes, as it requires less energy and produces higher-quality materials. It is also a more environmentally friendly process, as it produces fewer emissions and requires less energy. Additionally, SPS can be used to produce materials with complex geometries and shapes, making it ideal for applications that require intricate parts. The SPS market is growing rapidly, driven by increasing demand for high-performance materials and components. The market is expected to continue to grow in the coming years, as more industries adopt the technology. Some companies in the SPS market include Plansee Group, H.C. Starck, and GKN Sinter Metals.
