Federal-Mogul Corporation is extending its materials range for bushings and guides designed specifically for use at the very high temperatures increasingly found in turbochargers and Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) components. Turbocharging is already almost universal on diesel engines and will become even more common in gasoline applications as engineers improve fuel consumption and emissions by designing downsized engines that have higher specific outputs. The new materials will allow Federal-Mogul to produce components that meet the very tough durability targets imposed by the increasingly severe conditions seen in this new generation of downsized, low CO2 engines.
To achieve enhanced performance characteristics required by its customers, Federal-Mogul is using Powder Metallurgy (PM) techniques in which components are manufactured by sintering a blend of powdered metals. The many advantages of PM pressing and sintering include reduced machining and an ability to precisely tailor the composition of the material to match the performance characteristics required for the component.
