In this search, has been studied set of practical experiences for compacting several
metal powders composed a metallic alloy based iron from powders with a proposed
geometric shapes (cylindrical). Several tests were done in order to reach the relat
ionship
between the final apparent density for the compact with a sintering time, and study
changing the geometric dimensions of the final compact after the completion of sintering
process during different time periods.
The tests and Measurement results had been demonstrated that sintering time affect
positively on the apparent density of the final compact which Manufactured by technique
metal powders, and thus will increase its strength, where proportionality is directly
proportional access even to a certain extent. And also its effect was an obvious shrinking
diameters samples used in the tests. And changing (increase or decrease) in height samples.
Search has shown the great importance of the follow-up studying and analyzing the
relationships which associate that variables of metal powders technique each other, and
their different effect on the final compact.
In this research, It has been studied the effect of compaction pressure on
the final roughness for the top and down surfaces for the green compacts
that manufactured by meal powder technique and it has been studied also
the effect of piston veloci
ty (compaction velocity) on the final roughness
for the same two surfaces.
The results present that the curved for the top surface roughness is
completely decreasing and as the pressure has increased, the value for
roughness has reduced and the mean roughness (Ra) has very close
values, where these values have made curve from second degree and
opposite relationship. The results were same for the down surfaces but
with different variations.
