Powder Metallurgy Summer School for Young Engineers

About EPMA Powder Metallurgy Summer Schools

The EPMA PM Summer Schools have been designed to offer participants from all parts of Europe an advanced teaching of PM’s advantages and limitations by some of the leading academic and industrial personnel in Europe. It is also a rare opportunity to stimulate direct technical discussions by young scientists and engineers who are interested in broadening their knowledge through interaction with senior figures in the PM industry.

Powder Metallurgy

Powder Metallurgy (PM) is the generic name for a series of related processes where powders are compacted into components of the desired shape and then the compacts are strengthened by sintering at high temperature in excess of 1100o C. PM can utilise a range of materials including steels, non-ferrous metals, friction and anti-friction materials, high porosity materials and filters, hard materials and cemented carbides, magnets and materials for electronic applications.

EPMA PM Summer School 2023

EPMA's 21st Powder Metallurgy Summer School will be held from 24 to 28 July 2023 in the Fraunhofer IFAM centre in Dresden, Germany, and will present an in depth overview of PM.

The course fee (yet to be defined for 2023) includes all relevant course documents, five nights hotel accommodation (single occupancy), refreshments, a welcome reception on Monday and the Summer School networking dinner on Thursday evening.
