Metal Injection Molding (MIM)
MIM is an acronym for metal injection molding, a process for manufacturing metal parts. MIM combines the design freedom of plastic injection molding with the performance of metal. Since the 1980's MIM has grown into a mainstream technology employed in a growing range of electronic and medical applications.

Benefits
Metal injection molding offers industrial designers a host of advantages. MIM is a true "enabling technology", allowing engineers to create metal parts previously impossible to manufacture economically.

MIM offers:
Flexible designs similar to plastic injection molding
High performance hardness and density
Cost reduction through elimination of process steps
