MANUFACTURING PROCESS
The excellent properties of high-temperature hardness and wear resistance of MITSUBISHI CARBIDE is obtained by sintering its main components, Tungsten Carbide, and a binder, Cobalt, having a low melting point using our high level powder metallurgy technology.In the production process, Tungsten Carbide is first produced, then Cobalt is added, and then compound materials are formed by pressing and sintered in a vacuum sintering furnace.
Mixing, Crushing
Numeric control, robots, automated transport of goods and automated warehouses have been combined to form an integrated production flow from raw materials to finished products.
Production systems that incorporate newly developed equipment and computer systems have been implemented to achieve superior product quality and prepare for the high-level of activity of the future.
Drying, Granulating
To make possible high accuracy pressing, homogeneously granulated powder is made.
