MBN offers direct extrusion of powder-based materials, performed with or without a metallic capsule depending on the powder type and application needs. Encapsulated extrusion ensures full densification and protection for reactive powders, while capsule-free extrusion is suited for more ductile systems. The process compacts powders into fully dense long bars with circular or rectangular cross-sections, which can be cut, milled, and machined into final components. Extrusion at high temperature and pressure promotes strong particle bonding and grain alignment, enhancing mechanical properties. MBN has developed expertise with materials such as copper and light alloys, including aluminum and magnesium-aluminum systems. Equipped with dedicated presses and furnaces, MBN supports both prototyping and small-scale production of advanced powder-based components.
