VALUE-ADDED SERVICES

 
     
NetShape Technologies has industrialized a wide array of value-added services to meet our customers' specific and ever changing requirements. These are but a few examples of how we help customers improve design cycles, reduce cost, speed time-to-market and manage inventory.

 
     

Conversioneering™

Utilizing a comprehensive, engineered, step-by-step process, NetShape Technologies can help convert existing manufactured components to either powder metal or metal injection molding technology, often times saving between 10-50% over other processing technologies without sacrificing performance. NetShape Technologies combines metallurgical/product design engineering science with state-of-the-art computer aided modeling/design packages to deliver a cost effective technology solution that exceeds customers’ requirements.

Secondary Processes


NetShape Technologies offers a full range of secondary processing Capabilities so that components are delivered meeting final specifications. Secondary processes include sizing, coining, CNC machining, CNC turning, ID/OD grinding, surface grinding, plating, drilling, and tapping.

Assembly

NetShape Technologies offers a variety of customized assembly solutions utilizing various commodities to provide customers with greater manufacturing efficiency.

Supply Chain Management

NetShape Technologies helps customers improve ROI by employing proven forecasting, JIT and managed inventory programs to their products.
 
   
 

FEATURES & BENEFITS


 
     

High Shape Complexity

Can produce more complex parts than either investment casting or traditional press and sinter techniques.

High-Density

MIM parts produced with our feedstock will have density levels between 97.5-99.5%. These levels typically exceed traditional press and sinter techniques, and are comparable to investment casting.

High-Performance

The tensile strengths, elongations and hardness are superior to traditional press and sinter techniques, and comparable to investment casting or machine components.

Close Tolerances

NetShape Technologies has the ability to meet tolerances of down to +/-0.001". These tight tolerances avoid costly secondary machining Capabilities, therefore reducing costs and decreasing delivery time.

Low Cost

The cost savings can be realized by eliminating machining Capabilities, secondary coining Capabilities or surface impregnation.
