Abstract
Disclosed is a method and structure for manufacturing solid bodies from a quantity of powder. The powder is preformed and the preform is enclosed in a casing provided with an evacuation nozzle. The preform and the casing are preheated and the preform is degassed by evacuating the casing through the nozzle after the casing has been appropriately evacuated. The nozzle is then sealed by heating the same to forging temperatures, compressing the end thereof which is remote from the casing, cutting the compressed end of the nozzle to present a straight edge and thereafter welding the nozzle shut along said edge. After the nozzle has been sealed the same is enclosed in and surrounded by a gas tight hood and the space between the hood and the nozzle is filled with a fill material which may be a powder, an annular solid body or a combination of such body and a quantity of powder. After the nozzle has been appropriately shielded and covered by the hood and fill material, the casing with the powder preform therein is placed in a high pressure furnace where the preform is subjected to isostatic high pressure hot pressing.
