Because of the position of ferrous powder metallurgy, the author deals with the theoretical fundamentals and technical and technological aspects of the current state of knowledge in ferrous powder metallurgy so that special attention may be given to all factors influencing parts and materials with the required properties, form and dimensions, stressing their higher economic efficiency. The book also shows the extensive possibilities for further development of ferrous powder metallurgy and should therefore contribute to increasing the level of general and detailed knowledge of experts working in this area and should help in transition from fabrication of parts by conventional methods with all typical economic and ecological shortcomings to fabrication by powder metallurgy methods.
