Welcome to Hoeganaes, iron powder manufacturing. Hoeganaes specializes in powder metallurgy, and as the world’s leader in the production of ferrous powders, has been certified by DNV under the ISO/TS 16949:2002 quality management system and the ISO 14001 Environmental management system.Hoeganaes has fueled that growth with successive waves of technology which have expanded the use of prealloyed metal powders for a wide variety of applications. While the single largest application for ferrous powders is in the production of pressed and sintered parts, Hoeganaes serves a diverse set of industries, including casting, brazing, photocopy, chemical, EMI shielding and metallurgical applications. Hoeganaes commenced operations in Riverton, New Jersey in 1953.Hoeganaes creates high quality iron and steel powders, which are important raw materials in the creation of structural parts, filters and bearings. The manufacturing of these parts is accomplished through the powder metallurgy process consists of taking iron powders such as Ancorsteel 1000 and mixing them with graphite, alloys and lubricants.The metal powder mixture is then transferred to a die cavity and compacted to the desired shape. Compacting pressures for ferrous powders range from 415 to 690 MPa (30 to 50 tsi). The as-compacted part is called a “green” compact, which is sintered in a controlled atmosphere furnace in order to metallurgically bond the metal particles to each other. Some parts are used in the as-sintered condition but many are subjected to secondary operations such as sizing, tumbling, heat treatment, or machining.
