scope:
This standard defines and illustrates schematically those segments of a metal powder compacting press and the tooling used therein that are directly involved in forming a powder metallurgy compact. Its purpose is to provide the producer and purchaser of such equipment with a uniform and universally acceptable glossary of terms.
Multiple upper and lower punches are common today. A scheme is presented for identifying tooling members in multiple upper and lower punch presses.
