1. Transmission System Parts

 

Powder metallurgy materials can be used to manufacture gears, pulleys, chains, and clutch parts in auto transmission systems. These components can be closely integrated with the whole machine during the production process through the powder metallurgy process, further improving the performance of the parts, reducing costs, and shortening the production cycle.                                                Transmission System Parts

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2. Bearings and Bearing Bushes

 

Bearing bushes are key components of the automotive power system. Through powder metallurgy technology, bearings and bearing bushes can achieve precise dimensional control and high wear resistance during the machining process. In addition, this method can also reduce material loss and ease environmental burde
