Process Systems for Press Metal Powders
Efficiently mix and coat your press metal powders for superior sintering results. Hosokawa Micron offers advanced mixing technologies for manufacturers in automotive, power tools, appliances and precision components—supporting binder addition, anti-oxidation coating and powder flow optimisation.
Whether you're making gear wheels, camshaft parts or structural components, consistent powder quality is key. Our mixers deliver homogenous batches and optimal surface treatment—helping you meet strict standards for density, strength and mouldability in sintered parts.
Mixing & Coating Metal Powders
For dry mixing of press metal powders, the Nauta® conical screw mixer ensures thorough yet gentle blending—ideal for heat-sensitive, abrasive or high-value materials. When binder or coating agents are needed, the Cyclomix high-shear impact mixer offers the perfect solution.
With ultra-short mixing times and precise control over particle contact, the Cyclomix excels at:
- Incorporating binders for pressing or sintering
- Coating powders with wax for easy mould release
- Adding oils or agents to prevent oxidation
Its excellent cleanability and repeatable performance make it ideal for high-purity metal powder applications.
