Flow characteristics of fine metal powders are important in filling dies for pressing of powder metallurgy compacts, which are later sintered and sometimes machined into finished parts. The flow rate, as measured by a new ASTM standard, determines the flow necessary for a precise quantity of powder to be introduced into the die. The new standard, B964 , Test Methods for Flow Rate of Metal Powders…
