Powder metallurgy is a transformative manufacturing method that enables cost-effective, high-performance parts through the compression and sintering of powdered materials. But machining these components isn’t simple.

Unlike traditional wrought materials, powder metal parts present unique challenges. Their porous structure can cause irregular cutting behavior, while inconsistent densities across the part can affect surface finish, dimensional stability, and tooling life. Components may require stress relief or specialized holding techniques during machining.
