Metal Injection Moulding
Metal Injection Moulding for Precision Engineered Components
GUK Magnetics supplies Metal Injection Moulding (MIM) components for medium to high-volume production. The process is suited to small, complex metal parts where conventional machining or casting would be inefficient or cost-prohibitive.
MIM combines fine metal powders with injection moulding technology to produce near net-shape components with controlled shrinkage and typical tolerances of ±0.3%. Secondary machining can be incorporated where tighter tolerances are required. We support standalone MIM components as well as parts integrated into magnetic assemblies and engineered systems.
High-Volume Net-Shape Production
Metal Injection Moulding is ideal for complex, small components produced at medium to high volumes. Once tooling is established, part cost remains stable - even with intricate geometry.
Broad Material Capability & Guidance
We supply MIM components in stainless steels, low alloy steels, tool steels and soft magnetic alloys & provide guidance on material selection.
Engineering-Led Design Review
Every MIM project is reviewed for manufacturability, shrinkage control and tolerance feasibility before tooling is committed.
ISO 9001 Certified Quality Management
GUK Magnetics operates under an ISO 9001 certified quality management system, ensuring controlled processes, traceability and consistent production standards.
Precision & Repeatability Guaranteed
Typical tolerances of ±0.3% are achievable, with tighter tolerances supported through post-sinter CNC machining where required.
Integrated Component Supply
We don’t just supply standalone parts. We support components that integrate with magnetic assemblies, housings and wider mechanical systems - reducing supplier complexity.

Metal Injection Moulding Applications
Our Metal Injection Moulding components are used across demanding production environments where precision, repeatability and material performance are critical. From automotive systems to medical instruments and consumer electronics, MIM enables complex geometries at scale.
We manufacture to customer drawings and specifications. If required, we can review your design for manufacturability, shrinkage behaviour and tolerance feasibility prior to tooling commitment.
