2011 has been a very busy year for our PoP Centre. We have run several compaction improvement campaigns together with customers and also held a number of application engineering seminars together with OEMs and customers from all over the world. We have invested in new comprehensive PM brazing services, and installed a state-of-the-art helical gear box compaction system as well as a new FZG gear test rig that will help to provide valuable data for design of PM gears.

Other highlights include reaching 100,000 km with the Smart car gearbox and converting from Hiped to sintered gear pairs in the Power of Powder rally team car.

On the material side, we have successfully introduced our highly efficient lubricant system Intralube® E and our new machining enhancing additives. We also have a lot of conversion activities going on in the market for a couple of new products and a new material solution for assembled camshafts is currently being evaluated in an OEM engine.

We are already looking forward to next year’s activities but before that we will close the year by participating in the gear conference CTI Symposium in Berlin. Hope to see you there!

Sincerely,

Eckart Schneider
Marketing Manager PM Components
