DFM Feasibility Analysis Service (For MIM / CIM Projects)

Introduction

In Metal Injection Molding (MIM) and Ceramic Injection Molding (CIM), part design plays a decisive role in process success.
To help customers reduce development risks and improve product yield, we offer a free DFM (Design for Manufacturability) feasibility analysis report as part of the confirmed project onboarding process. This service supports you in optimizing the structure and ensuring a smooth transition into prototyping and mass production.

Why DFM Analysis Matters

✅ Is the structure suitable for injection and sintering?
✅ Will the design cause warping, shrinkage, or cracking during processing?
✅ Are the gate location and parting lines optimal?
✅ Does the wall thickness meet molding and sintering requirements?
✅ Can the product maintain dimensional stability in high-precision applications?

What’s Included in the Report:

✔ Molding Feasibility Evaluation

Parting line & ejection direction analysis
Gate location suggestions & flow path simulation
Sintering shrinkage path prediction and deformation risk alerts

✔ Material & Process Compatibility

Material recommendations (e.g., 17-4PH, 316L, ZrO₂, Al₂O₃)
Debinding and sintering process alignment
Post-processing suggestions (machining, polishing, etc.)

✔ Design Optimization Recommendations

Ideal wall thickness, fillet radius, and draft angles
Design simplification for sintering stability
Stress concentration reduction strategies
How to Obtain the DFM Report

Once your project is confirmed for development, our engineers will conduct a comprehensive DFM analysis as part of the engineering kickoff.
This report is included free of charge after the order is confirmed, and is intended to ensure the highest success rate for the first-run samples.

What You Need to Provide:

3D CAD files (STEP / IGS / XT recommended)
Product application and key functional requirements
Preferred materials and target tolerances
