The effect of compacting pressure on the radial/axial (R/A) shrinkage ratio for iron powder compacts was studied. It was observed that R/A and compacting pressure have a linear relationship. The effect of density distribution on R/A ratio inside the green compact was determined. The observed changes in R/A are attributed to the change in density distribution in the green compact.
