February 13, 2023
The Metal Powder Industries Federation (MPIF) has released its 2023 PM Industry Roadmap. This update reviews current and future demands of key markets and identifies technical barriers, challenges, opportunities and priorities that are expected to further drive the growth of the Powder Metallurgy industry.
categories of PM processes:
- Press & sinter
- Metal Injection Moulding
- Metal Additive Manufacturing
- Isostatic Pressing
Current industry is driven by applications in the automotive market, but growth opportunities over the next decade are expected in the energy, aerospace, medical, dental, electrical & magnetic, defence, industrial and consumer markets.
The 2023 update also reviews the industry achievements from 2017 – 2022 and features interactive links to award-winning Powder Metallurgy components. The original 2001 roadmap, and subsequent updates in 2012 and 2017, are still valid and relevant and may continue to serve as a reference.
The 2023 PM Industry Roadmap is available here.
