APPLICATION

LÖMI Debinding Systems for Metal and Ceramic Injection Moulding. LÖMI plants can process numerous feedstocks as they extract the binder components with organic solvents or with water. All plants use our advanced clean technology in a closed system and feature a PLC automated process with real-time parameter visualisation via touch panel.

Powder injection molding is a process of manufacturing geometrically complex parts from materials that are demanding with regard to machinability, like carbide or ceramics / keramics. Powder injection moulding is particularly suited for small parts with medium and large lot sizes. The process is characterised by its high rate of yield with regard to the raw material.

Powder Injection Moulding consists of three process steps:

• At first, parts close to their final contours are shaped on standard injection moulding machines – the so-called green parts.
• The following Debinding – the removal of the binder components that were necessary for the shaping process – is realised through extraction by organic solvent or water. The moulded part turns into the so-called brown part.
• The last process step consists of Sintering under high temperatures. As a result, we obtain the metal or ceramics part that shows its final geometrical and material properties and which is ready to use.

EDA Model Series

For small numbers of injection moulded parts, the EDA model series combine debinding, vacuum drying and solvent recovery in one single unit.

EBA / MDA Model Series

For medium and large numbers of injection moulded parts: EBA model series with a parallelly operated solvent recovery system of MDA model series.

EBA-E Model Series

Debinding systems with special process chamber geometry and adapted loading trays, compatible with the sinter furnace series MIM 3000 of Elnik Systems.

EBA-W Model Series

Debinding systems with water extraction process for special feedstocks. They feature a horizontal vessel in a compact housing.
