Warm Isostatic Pressing -Letone

What is Warm Isostatic Pressing (WIP)?

Warm isostatic pressing uses flexible materials as molds, and depending on the material being processed, the pressurizing medium can be water or oil, to shape and press powdered materials. In this process, the liquid is first heated and then injected into a sealed, high-pressure chamber through a pressure source. The pressure of the medium within the sealed container can be uniformly transmitted in all directions, ultimately resulting in products with uniform density and excellent performance. Due to its unique forming advantages, warm isostatic pressing has been widely used in many high-end industrial fields.

New Material Preparation: Forming of blanks for high-temperature alloys, titanium alloys, ceramic matrix composites, and superhard materials (such as silicon nitride and alumina) to provide high-performance substrates for aerospace and nuclear energy fields.
Electronics and Ceramics: Multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC), LTCC/HTCC packaging substrates, high-voltage electromagnetic ceramic insulators, etc., ensuring consistent electrical performance and dimensional accuracy.
Special Material Processing: Densification treatment of graphite electrodes, polyamide products, rare earth permanent magnets, and rare metal powders to improve material strength and conductivity.
Precision Manufacturing: Automotive engine turbine blades, medical implants (such as ceramic prostheses), cutting tools, etc., meeting the reliability and service life requirements of high-end equipment.

What are the advantages of Warm Isostatic Pressing?

Increased Density

Uniform heat facilitates material compaction to eliminate porosity, thereby increasing the material's density.

Specialized Applications

It is an ideal technology for materials that cannot withstand high temperatures, such as hot isostatic pressing.

Lower Consumption

It is more economical because it requires a lower temperature than hot isostatic pressing.

Mechanical Properties

Improved mechanical properties make the material more durable and long-lasting.
