According to the report from Taiwan Electronic Times, the use of 3C products chains which made by metal injection molding process grows rapidly. It was noted that despite the PC production decreased year by year, the combination of flat-panel and notebook hybrid functional equipment are expected to grow 13%. These combined types of equipments have very complex multi-function hinge mechanism, for example, to separate or rotate screen.
Metal-injection hinges, which are expected to appear in the next generation of Apple's MacBook, also boost capacity expansion at the industry's leading hinge manufacturers.
It is not a new matter that 3C industry use Metal injection molding to produce hinges. The early flip phone was to use such similar hinge mechanism.
Compared metal injection molding with traditional technology, it is with the advantages of high precision, uniform organization, excellent performance, low production costs. What is more, MIM products are widely used in electronic information engineering, medical equipment, office equipment, automobiles, machinery, Sports equipment, watches and clocks, weapons and aerospace and other industrial fields. Therefore, the international community generally believe that the technology will lead to a revolution of the development of parts forming and processing technology, known as "the most popular parts forming technology" and "21st century, forming technology”.
As the core functional part of the car, the engine processing equipment is one of the most important equipments in auto. With the acceleration of new vehicle business models, the engine production line requires higher and higher demand for flexibility. Usually, an engine production line needs to be able to meet at least three types of production models. At the same time, the trend of lightweight vehicle development makes the transformation of engine cylinder block, cylinder head material requirements from cast iron to aluminum alloy.
