Why You Should Submit an Abstract to PowderMet2027/AMPM2027

If you are working in powder metallurgy, particulate materials, metal powders, or metal additive manufacturing, PowderMet2027/AMPM2027 is one of the most important places to share your work. Hosted by the Metal Powder Industries Federation (MPIF), this event brings together the PM industry from June 20–23, 2027, in Buffalo, New York, combining PowderMet2027 and AMPM2027 into one major conference experience.

The Center for Powder Metallurgy Technology (CPMT) recently supported an Advanced Research Projects Agency – Energy (ARPA-E) meeting at the University of Utah. During this meeting professors and students presented the latest developments in their project “Producing Steel Directly from Iron Ore Concentrate” using a hydrogen reduction melt-less steelmaking (HRMLES) process. Participants were also treated to a tour of the facility and witnessed the process in action.

The Metal Powder Industries Federation (MPIF) invites you to submit your original presentations for the MIM2027 Conference, happening March 1–3, 2027, in Costa Mesa, California. This annual event is the ultimate platform for professionals to share groundbreaking advancements in injection molding technologies. Present your research in a technical presentation in front of the decision makers of the industry.
