Powder metallurgy (PM) refers to a metal-forming process that is performed by heating compacted metal powders, such as steel, aluminum, titanium, and nickel, below their melting points through forming, mixing, pressing, and sintering processes. It comprises various technologies, such as metal additive manufacturing (AM), powder bed, blown powder, metal injection molding (MIM), and powder metal hot isostatic pressing (HIP). It is highly suitable for a wide variety of ferrous and non-ferrous materials and provides high yield strength, tensile strength, and durability. It offers flexibility, lowers wastage costs, and improves stress performance and vibration absorption. It allows for designing intricate parts and has precise forming capabilities that boost overall product quality. Besides this, it assists in providing an improved surface finish, enhanced hardness, and high wear and cratering resistance. As a result, PM is widely employed in the automotive, aerospace, medical, construction, electrical and electronics, and oil and gas industries across the globe.

Powder Metallurgy Market Trends:
At present, the rising adoption of PM to manufacture inert machine parts, such as gears, rotors, bearings, magnets, and bushings, represents one of the key factors contributing to the growth of the market. Besides this, the growing utilization in the automotive industry to produce various lightweight automotive components and enhance fuel efficiency is offering a positive market outlook. Additionally, there is a rise in the demand for cost-effective, efficient, and lightweight material products around the world. This, coupled with the increasing number of infrastructure projects and construction activities is bolstering the growth of the market. Apart from this, the rising utilization of PM, as it reduces manufacturing yield losses and produces lower cost products, is impelling the growth of the market. Moreover, the increasing employment of PM in numerous electronic devices, such as car batteries and electronic gadgets across the globe, is offering lucrative growth opportunities to industry investors. In addition, the rising demand for PM in the aerospace industry, as it provides controlled porosity and high heat capacity and modulus of elasticity, is supporting the growth of the market. Furthermore, the increasing demand for metal-based products that are produced using additive manufacturing in the oil and gas sector is strengthening the growth of the market.
