The large-scale HIP machine reportedly gives the team greater flexibility and production readiness, supporting increased demand for components with complex geometries.
HIP is used to consolidate powders and solids. Materials range from ceramics to metals and composite materials. Light-weight materials, high speed steels, tool steels and super alloys all use HIP, and new generations of materials such as high entropy alloys are also developed using this process.
Metal Injection Molding, sintered powder compacts, and metal AM parts are all possible to HIP. Canned powders can also be formed into solid components in a process called PM HIP or PM NNS (Near Net Shape).
According to Quintus, the added capacity will support more efficient production, demanding component requirements, and strengthen the ability to offer reliable large-scale production.
