Method and apparatus for manufacturing finished parts as composite bodies from pulverulent rolling materials

摘要

The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for the manufacture of finished parts by the sintering of compacts which are formed as composite moldings of a pulverulent base material and at least one other pulverulent material, particularly different metal powders. The compacts are produced in the manner that at least one of the powder materials is introduced in pourable condition directly alongside of an already pre-compacted part of the compact into the mold which has a shell-shaped matrix and the powder materials are subjected together to final compacting by plug forces acting from on top and on bottom to the size desired for the sintering. In order to improve the traditional method so that moldings with vertically extending separation lines between the individual portions of the composite material can be produced without the previous disadvantages and provide an apparatus on which the compacts can be produced in accordance with this method, at least two powder materials are introduced, one after the other, in pourable condition into the individual regions of the filling volume of the mold which are to be opened, at least one pre-compacting of the powder material already introduced being affected until dimensional stability is obtained before the next powder material is introduced alongside of the pre-compacted material and is pre-compacted in similar manner, and that only then is the joint final compacting effected.
