Institute
A materials research institute built for indigenous magnet capability.
Ibn-e-Sina Institute of Technology sits in H-11/4, Islamabad. The institute brings specialized facilities for alloy development, processing and characterization under one roof — staffed to solve technical problems for industry, research establishments and academia.
What the campus is set up to do
Research and development lines include investment casting, alloy development, powder metallurgy, coating, magnet development, materials characterization, process-equipment development, and electromagnet development and calibration.
The working principles remain the brief: new technology, reduced cost, indigenous development and self-reliance — design, process equipment and test on one campus.
Reduced cost
Local CIP, vacuum sintering and finishing for custom geometries.
Self-reliance
Indigenous magnet, motor and process-equipment research for Pakistani industry.
Research lines
Eight disciplines under one roof.
Each line supports the others — a single technical staff carries a material from alloy to measured magnet.
Alloy development
Compositions designed and melted in-house for magnet and powder work.
Powder metallurgy
Powder preparation, CIP of green compacts and vacuum sintering.
Magnet development
NdFeB, SmCo, Alnico and ferrite grades developed to specification.
Investment casting
Ceramic shell moulds and vacuum casting with fine grain structure.
Coating & finishing
Ni, Cu, Zn electroplating and PVD on tools.
Characterization
SEM / TEM, XRF, ICP, thermal analysis and magnetic test.
Electromagnets
Development and calibration of field systems up to 11 tesla.
Process equipment
CIP, vacuum furnaces and pulsed supplies designed on campus.
Technical support
Brief review, test planning and reporting for collaborators.
How we work
A straightforward path for collaborators.
Brief
Describe the geometry, grade, temperature and duty cycle you need.
Plan
The team proposes a development or test route and the data you will receive.
Deliver
Samples are made and measured; results are reported with the measured loops and figures.
