Sacmi to showcase its latest energy-saving Powder Metallurgy press at ceramitec 2024
April 10, 2024
Sacmi Group, based in Imola, Italy, is currently showcasing its latest technologies for the Powder Metallurgy, hardmetals and ceramic industries at this year’s ceramitec 2024 exhibition taking place in Munich, Germany April 9-12.
The company explains that changes in the Powder Metallurgy market over the last few years, mainly related to vehicle electrification, have required new technologies and new components. This has given Sacmi the chance to reenter the market, leading to the creation of new solutions targeted to help customers tackle emerging production challenges.
Sacmi’s Advanced Technologies Business Unit has focused on multiple solutions, all of which are being presented at ceramitec 2024.
The Helical Gear system seen at the last ceramitec event has been improved and can now produce gears with angles of up to 45°. Sacmi has also developed a Die Wall Lubrication system that allows high-density parts (up to 7.71 g/cm3) by compacting zero-lubricant powders.
Sacmi reported that a further highlight will be a preview of the latest energy-saving press which, thanks to the adoption of closed-loop hydraulic systems, can reduce energy consumption by up to 50% during the pressing cycle. This result is achieved while maintaining the efficiency and speed of standard Sacmi presses. It is applicable to the entire Powder Metallurgy press range and existing presses installed on customers’ premises, letting them reduce operating costs significantly.
