The annual Basic Powder Metallurgy (PM) Short Course wrapped up its 55th session last week with 74 students in attendance. This year’s course was held August 12–14, and received excellent feedback from attendees, with over 100% stating that they would recommend the course to others.
The program committee for the 2020 World Congress on Powder Metallurgy & Particulate Materials (WorldPM2020) has issued a “Call for Papers & Posters” covering the latest developments in powder metallurgy (PM) materials, processes, and applications. Held once every six years in North America, this is only the second time the that the WorldPM2020 Congress will be co-located with the Additive Manufacturing with Powder Metallurgy Conference (AMPM2020) and the International Conference on Tungsten, Refractory & Hardmaterials (Tungsten2020). All three co-located events will be held in Montréal, Canada, June 27–July 1, 2020, at the Montréal Convention Center.
The program committee for the Additive Manufacturing with Powder Metallurgy Conference (AMPM2020) has issued a “Call for Papers & Posters” covering the latest developments in the fast-growing field of metal additive manufacturing (AM). The AMPM Conference has grown significantly since its debut in 2014 as the only conference focused on metal AM, and this year there will be an entire extra day of technical sessions. This is only the second time that the AMPM Conference will be held with the co-located World Congress on Powder Metallurgy & Particulate Materials (WorldPM2020) will and the International Conference on Tungsten, Refractory & Hardmaterials. All three events will be held in Montréal, Canada, June 27–July 1, 2020, at the Montréal Convention Center.
The Metal Injection Molding Association (MIMA), a trade association that promotes metal injection molding (MIM) powders, components and products, is proud to announce the launch of its newly redesigned website at www.mimaweb.org. The new site features a modern design, improved functionality, and resources for potential MIM end users.
The first self-sustaining residential home to use Hy2Green, a carbon dioxide–free energy supply system developed by GKN Powder Metallurgy, is officially in use. The energy storage system utilizes metal powder to hold hydrogen as an energy source. The residence, located in South Tyrolian Alps, is not connected to a public power grid.
