I have castings or additive parts with internal porosity. Who can HIP them, and what size envelope do they have?
What it is
Applying high inert gas pressure at elevated temperature to collapse internal porosity. Standard for closing shrinkage in castings, densifying additive manufactured parts and consolidating powder into near net shapes.
