Describe briefly the production steps involved in making powder metallurgy parts.
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
Describe briefly the production steps involved in making powder metallurgy parts.
Explanation of Solution
There are several sequential steps in making powder metallurgy parts. It involves powder production, followed by blending and compaction. After that sintering is carried out and finally the finishing operations.
