      abstract     = {Powder metallurgy is an attractive production method for
                      complex-shaped NiTi parts. Pre-alloyed NiTi powders are
                      preferred as a starting material for achieving an
                      essentially one-phase homogeneous structure. This work
                      describes in detail how complex-shaped components with fully
                      expressed shape memory properties can be produced from
                      pre-alloyed NiTi powders by means of P/M technologies. The
                      metal injection moulding (MIM) technique was chosen for
                      near-net-shape forming. Simple-shaped components were also
                      produced by hot isostatic pressing (HIP) as a reference.
                      Considering the basic principles of the shape memory effect,
                      this paper provides a detailed description of the process
                      technology factors to be considered for obtaining components
                      with reproducible mechanical properties and fully expressed
                      shape memory properties. Three case studies illustrate the
                      potential of powder metallurgy for processing shape memory
                      alloys: a biomedical foot staple for stabilizing toe
                      fractures, clamping sleeves for domestic engineering and
                      highly porous NiTi components for implants and damping
                      applications.},
