  • Designing with Metal Injection Molding in Mind

    Medical device manufacturers are constantly looking for ways to innovate to provide life-saving solutions to compete in a global marketplace. As pressures constantly drive the need for innovation, the primary tendency is to focus on innovating the product and less so on innovating the methods in which the product is made. Metal injection molding has garnered significant momentum over the past decade, but many engineers are still hesitant or unfamiliar incorporating MIM into their designs for this innovative manufacturing process over conventional processes they are accustomed to, such as CNC machining.
