Iron powder

Ferrous Premix

Focussed on the specific need of providing sintering manufacturers, ready to press blends, Pometon has developed products and process to mix the several elements of customised recipes and to guarantee appropriate quality of the supply.
Over 100 different blends are today defined to meet customers requirements for material press ready powder. Each blend requires a very close cooperation between Customer and Pometon technicians in the definition of parameters and control methods.
