Deliverables :

Envisaged	Achieved
Preparation of Al-alloy feedstock.	Feedstock of Al-alloy which has been developed provides good green strength, good flow properties and it can be produced economically.
Manufacturing of green components from Al-alloy feedstock by Metal Injection Molding process route.	Green compacts of cylindrical shape (Dia: 10mm, Height:10 mm ) and sears was manufactured using experimental set-up.
Sintering of debound products.	Sintered components of Al-alloy such as cylindrical sample and sear developed by Metal Injection Moulding process route.
