Höganäs Iron Powder Handbook Volume 1: Basic Information, Binder 3.

1962, ca. 240 Seiten mit zahlreichen Bildern. Ringbindung.

The issue of Part III completes the Höganäs Iron Powder Handbook. The Handbook is essentially concerned with the practical application of the press-and-sinter process as a modern mass-production technique for structural components, fully competitive with the older, longer established processes. The principles and processes described will not become obsolete, but will be developed to meet the needs of varying conditions and markets all over the world. The formation of powder metallurgy associations in the major industrial countries, and the establishing of reliable standards, has gone hand-in-hand with an increasing willingness to publish practical, as well as theoretical information upon all phases of the press-and-sinter technique. The many valuable contributions to this Handbook, generously supplied by men and companies of international repute, offer proof of a clear understanding that the increasing status of the industry demands the publication of technical information of all kinds. Only by this means can the designers of engineering components learn the benefits — and limitations — of the powder metallurgy technique, and confidently judge the merits of the sintered component as an alternative to components produced by more conventional methods. High-production industrial concerns — the main customers of the powder metallurgy industry — form the largest group of subscribers to this Handbook. We trust that the Höganäs Iron Powder Handbook will be used frequently by those for whom it has been written — the technicians in laboratories, design offices and production departments. When information covering so wide a field of experience is applied to a particular component, new problems often emerge. The Höganäs Technical Service welcomes such problems. Complete research and experimental facilities are available, including our powder metallurgy demonstration plant. We invite you to make full use of the world-wide experience of the Höganäs organization. In conclusion, we express our grateful thanks to our many friends in countries all over the world, without whose assistance and co-operation this Handbook could not have been completed.
