AMETEK Specialty Metal Products (SMP) has completed a major expansion of its powder metal manufacturing facility at Eighty Four, PA. The expansion adds a second production line for AMETEK’s Motor Vehicle Series (MVS(TM)) 400 high-quality metal powders, increasing the capacity for the stainless steel and high-alloy metal powders by 30 percent.

The additional capacity allows AMETEK SMP to remain a key supplier of stainless steel powder and to respond effectively to the fast-growing automotive parts market. Demand for stainless steel powder for automotive applications has grown considerably in recent years, and that trend is expected to continue as automotive manufacturers specify stainless steel and high-alloy powders for critical parts, such as passenger car exhaust system flanges and camshaft lobes for sport utility vehicles.
