Abstract
Mechanical properties of powder metal parts are directly related to the shape, distribution and the amount of pores. In this study, mechanical properties of induction sintered Fe based components were investigated dependent on the changing of sintering time and pore structures. For this purpose, compression tests were applied to sintered bushings and microstructural photographs were taken. The compression tests were accompanied by respective finite element analyses. The numerical values were compared to experimental results. It turned out that the micro-stress values were dependent on the amount and distribution of porosity.
