A heterogeneous powder molded body may include respective powder processed parts formed of different powders, the heterogeneous powder molded body being formed by a forming machine including a die, a lower forming module located under the die to form a lower part of a molded body to be manufactured, and an upper forming module located above the die to form an upper part of the molded body to be manufactured, in which when each of the different powders is input onto the die to form the molded body, the die ascends and thus a filling time of each input powder is secured.

The present invention relates to a punch unit of a powder press, wherein the punch unit is assembled from at least two parts, in this case comprising a headpiece as the first part and a widening region, adjoining the headpiece, as the second part, wherein the widening region flares to a diameter of a punch bolder which is directly attachable to an end, located away from the headpiece, of the widening region. Furthermore, punch units of a powder press that slide one inside another, a powder press itself and a method for operating a powder press are proposed.

Provided are a magnetic wedge in which insertion of a magnetic wedge in a tooth tip of a dynamo-electric machine can be performed more smoothly, and a method for manufacturing the magnetic wedge. This magnetic wedge is installed in a slot opening of a stator of the dynamo-electric machine, and defining that the dimension of the magnetic wedge in the circumferential direction of the dynamo-electric machine is the width, the projection shape of the magnetic wedge projected on a plane perpendicular to the width direction is a rectangle, parallelogram, or a right angle trapezoid, and the corners of the rectangle, parallelogram, or right angle trapezoid have a rounded shape.

There is provided a method for controlling a powder compacting apparatus including: a die having a hollow; an upper punch and a floating lower punch; a first actuator that pushes down the upper punch; a second actuator that controls a floating load of the floating lower punch; and a stopper that defines a pressurization stop position of the floating lower punch. The powder compacting apparatus is configured such that the first actuator is operated to push down the upper punch to pressurize powder charged into the cavity, and the second actuator is controlled to pressurize the powder such that a load acting on the powder during pressurization becomes a prescribed floating load required to compact the powder. The method includes reducing the floating load in a stepwise manner after completion of the pressurization.

A synchronizer hub for vehicles and a method for manufacturing the same forms an inner spline and an outer spline of a transmission synchronizer hub for vehicles by using different materials.

The synchronizer hub may be manufactured by filling inner powders for forming the inner spline, molding the inner spline, filling outer powders for forming the outer spline, molding the outer spline, separating the double molded object obtained by integrally forming the inner spline and the outer spline from a mold, and performing sintering, post-processing, and high-frequency heating processes.

A piston includes: a disk-shaped piston body; an annular valve seat axially projecting from a first end of the piston body; and at least one port axially extending from the area inside the annular valve seat in the first end of the piston body to a second end of the piston body, and the port has a cross-sectional shape of a rounded rectangular having two arc-shaped opposite sides on one circle, the cross-sectional shape being the same all the way along the piston body.

A rare earth sintered magnet is prepared from a corresponding alloy powder, using a mold comprising a die, an upper punch, and a lower punch which is divided into a plurality of punch segments which are independently movable within the die. The method comprises the steps of filling the mold cavity with the alloy powder when one or more selected punch segments are moved to a higher position than the remaining punch segments; moving the selected punch segments down to the position where the selected and remaining punch segments assume the normal shape of the lower punch during the compression step; compressing the alloy powder between the upper and lower punches under a magnetic field while the normal shape of the lower punch is maintained, for thereby molding a compact; and heat treating the compact.

A uniaxial press for shaping pellets by compressing powder in a die by punches. The uniaxial press can be used in a restricted and hostile environment and includes small modules that can pass separately through narrow openings, the modules being assembled by placing over columns and by screwing, therefore by remote handling in the confined space where the press is to operate without requiring any further intervention. The actuation is generally exclusively electromechanical.
