METHOD AND DEVICE FOR, AND USE OF, A DENTAL PRODUCT OR OTHER PRODUCT FOR THE HUMAN BODY

摘要

A dental product is produced from material in powder form. In a first manufacturing stage, the product is given a shape which is larger than its final shape, and in further manufacturing stages the product is subjected to material shrinkage/sintering and working in order to obtain the final shape. Metal powder is applied to the mould tool, and the mould tool with the appli ed metal powder is placed in pressure-generating equipment (6) where the powder (1') applied to the mould tool (2d) is subjected to compaction pressure (F) which compacts the powder so that at least an 80 percent basic density is obtained in the material. The compacted material is then machined and, after machining, it is removed from the mould tool. The sintering stage is then carried out so that the final shape is obtained.
