| Abstract Scope |
Binder jet printing (BJP) offers a promising route for fabricating geometrically complex and large soft magnetic components. However, the low sintered bulk density and high residual porosity of binder jetted soft ferrite such as MnZn and NiZn ferrite parts significantly impact magnetic properties, limiting their use in advanced applications. This study presents post-sintering infiltration and liquid phase sintering (LPS) as viable strategies to enhance the consolidation of binder jet printed ferrite parts. Magnetic material was infiltrated alongside liquid phase forming additives to improve magnetic connectivity and promote densification. This approach resulted in reduced porosity, improved bulk density, and enhancements in magnetic behavior. These findings demonstrate a promising pathway for consolidating binder jet printed soft magnetic components. |
