How does the HIP process work?

The result is a significant improvement in your component properties!
When components are treated with the Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP) process - simultaneous application of elevated heat and pressure with an inert gas atmosphere - internal cavities and micro-porosities are eliminated through a combination of plastic deformation, flow and diffusion bonding of the material.

The HIP process is used to improve a wide range of products, including castings, additively manufactured parts, near net shape parts, ceramics, powder metallurgy, sintered and metal injection moulded parts.

Advantages of the process for your products

The HIP process can be relied upon to provide the following benefits:
  • Elimination of internal voids and microporosity
  • Improved fatigue properties
  • Reduction of microshrinkage
  • Greater tensile strength
  • Higher impact strength
  • Reduced overall variation in mechanical properties
