MIM2026 Concludes in Jacksonville

The international conference for MIM—metal injection molding; CIM—ceramic injection molding; and CCIM— cemented carbide recently concluded in Jacksonville, Florida. The conference featured 18 technical presentations and a dozen commercial presentations by industry service providers.

The Metal Injection Molding Association (MIMA) provided grants for 3 students to attend the conference. Not only were the grant recipients given the opportunity to hear cutting-edge presentations, make connections with professionals in the field, and gain exposure to the MIM industry, but each provided a presentation on work at their universities.

Before the conference, former MIMA President Matt Bulger of ATPM Consulting led a Powder Injection Molding (PIM) tutorial. His session gave attendees a clear, concise introduction to PIM technology, providing a comprehensive foundation in a short amount of time.
