A composition for the additive manufacture of three-dimensional objects is provided. The composition includes a sinterable frit, a protein binder, and an aqueous-based solvent.

Techniques are described for mounting a display and/or display cover to a housing of a display device, such as a mobile phone. In an embodiment, the housing and display cover include chamfered edges at complementary angles to allow for an “edge-to-edge” display. The display cover and housing are affixed to each other at the chamfered edges using curable liquid adhesive.

The present disclosure relates to titanium or titanium alloy (e.g., titanium/copper alloy) mobile phone chassis, and methods for making and using same.

This invention relates to a method for manufacturing a part of complex shape (3) by successive deposition of layers according to a technique of 3D additive printing and pressure sintering, comprising the following steps: an initial step of producing a model (1) from a material chosen from a porous or pulverulent material based on a metal alloy, a ceramic, a composite material and a lost material by formation of successive layers deposited according to the digitally controlled 3D additive printing technique, followed by a step of introducing a preform (1) made of porous or pulverulent material to be densified, derived from the model (1), into a mold (2) filled with a sacrificial porous or pulverulent material (13) in addition to the preform (1), the uniaxial densifying pressure sintering (10) then being applied to the mold (2) in order to form the part (3) which is finally extracted from the mold (2).

A mold assembly includes a first mold part having guide passages defined therein. Protruding members are each movably received in a first portion of a respective guide passage to extend selectively in and out of the mold cavity. At least some of the protruding members are movable along different directions from one another. Cables are each connected to one of the protruding members and extend through a linear second portion of the respective guide passage and out of the first mold part. An actuator is connected to the cables and movable relative to the first mold part between an extended position and a retracted position. In the extended position, each protruding member protrudes into the mold cavity. In the retracted position, each of protruding member is retracted out of the mold cavity and contained within the respective guide passage. A guide element and a method of molding are also discussed.

A method for producing a high temperature component includes a shaping step of shaping a powder compact of a desired high temperature component shape using a specific powder shaping method, from an alloy powder of γ′ precipitation strengthening-type Ni-based alloy, and a crystal grain coarsening step of coarsening a crystal grain size of the powder compact by heat treatment, wherein the powder compact contains 0.002% or more and 0.07% or less of C, and 5.40% or more and 8.40% or less of Al+Ti by mass percentage.

In a process for producing a hearing aid, comprising a housing made out, at least partially, of a metallic or ceramic part using powder injection molding technique (PIM) within the housing (1) at least one additional element (3) made out of a polymeric material is arranged for placing functional parts (5, 7, 13) within or at the housing (1) to reduce complexity of P parts and/or to compensate any tolerances due to the PIM process.

The present disclosure relates to a method for manufacturing a sensor for a thermal, flow measuring device. The method includes, in such case, manufacturing a metal jacketing for a sensor core, introducing the sensor core into the metal jacketing and sintering the metal jacketing with introduced sensor core.

A method of fabricating a sintered three-dimensional part, the method including: preparing an injection composition including a binder and a powder of a titanium-based alloy including aluminum and/or chromium; injecting the composition into a cavity of a mold to obtain a blank; eliminating the binder present in the blank; a first step of sintering the powder, the powder subjected to a first pressure higher than or equal to 1 mbar to obtain a preform of the part; and a second sintering step during which a second pressure, which is lower than the first pressure, is imposed, the duration for which the second pressure is applied being selected so that the content by weight of aluminum and/or chromium in a layer having a thickness of 200 μm situated at the surface of the preform does not vary by more than 5% in relative value due to the second sintering step.
