A Global Gathering of PM Experts<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

PM 25 served as a comprehensive platform for exchanging ideas, presenting research, and exploring new innovations in the powder metallurgy (PM) and particulate materials space. Set against the dynamic backdrop of Mumbai \u2014 a hub for India’s top industrial giants and scientific institutions \u2014 the event delivered impactful discussions and collaborations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Running alongside PM 25 was the 50th Annual Technical Meet of PMAI<\/strong>, which gave researchers, students, and professionals from academia and industry a chance to present their pioneering work to an engaged audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Highlights from the Technical Sessions<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The conference featured a series of plenary sessions and technical tracks<\/strong> that addressed both foundational advancements and emerging trends in PM. Some of the major topics discussed included:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Industrial PM (Press & Sinter)<\/strong> technologies for automotive, electrical, and mechanical parts<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Additive Manufacturing (AM)<\/strong> and Powder Injection Molding (MIM\/CIM)<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Energy materials<\/strong> for electric vehicles, fuel cells, and thermoelectric devices<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Heat treatment<\/strong>, surface engineering<\/strong>, laser sintering<\/strong>, and coating technologies<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Advanced sintering processes<\/strong> including Spark Plasma Sintering<\/strong> and Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP)<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Refractory metals<\/strong>, hard metals<\/strong>, ceramics<\/strong>, and composite tools<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Biomedical materials<\/strong>, functionally graded components<\/strong>, and porous structures<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Vehicle weight reduction<\/strong>, E-mobility<\/strong>, and battery materials<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Powder production and characterization<\/strong>, binder and feedstock development<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Digitalization in PM<\/strong>: Data mining, simulation, and automation<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Materials for aerospace, defence, and nuclear applications<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Sustainability<\/strong>, waste management<\/strong>, and green PM practices<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Each session was delivered by top-tier experts and attracted strong participation from delegates around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n\n\n\n

    An Event That Delivered Impact<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    PM 25 proved to be a valuable knowledge-sharing and networking opportunity for:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Researchers eager to present and publish<\/strong> their findings in international journals<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Industry professionals exploring new technologies<\/strong> and business partnerships<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Academics and students looking to connect with mentors and thought leaders<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Manufacturers and suppliers participating in the exhibition to showcase their innovations<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
      \n\n\n\n

      The successful conclusion of PM 25<\/strong> reinforced its reputation as one of the most important events in the powder metallurgy industry. The conference not only highlighted India\u2019s growing influence in PM technology but also laid the groundwork for future collaborations and innovations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      As the global PM community looks forward to upcoming editions, the knowledge, connections, and momentum built at PM 25<\/strong> will continue to shape the industry\u2019s path forward. Also as the industry evolves, SLM Metal remains at the forefront\u2014empowering engineers, manufacturers, and researchers with innovative solutions that shape the materials of tomorrow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
