Titanium Milling: This process uses rotating cutting tools to remove material from the titanium workpiece. It is effective for creating complex shapes and features. Due to titanium’s strength and low thermal conductivity, careful management of cutting speeds and coolant levels is essential to prevent tool wear and overheating.

Titanium Turning and Lathing: In this process, the titanium workpiece is rotated while a stationary cutting tool shapes it. This method is ideal for producing cylindrical parts. However, it requires careful handling to avoid excessive vibrations and ensure a smooth finish.

Titanium Drilling and Boring: Drilling creates precise holes in titanium using sharp bits while boring enlarges these holes to meet tight tolerances. Both processes are crucial for applications requiring accurate hole dimensions.

5-Axis Titanium Machining: This advanced process allows the titanium workpiece to move along five different axes, enabling the creation of intricate parts with fewer setups. It is particularly useful in industries such as aerospace and medicine, where precision is critical.

Titanium Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM): While not as commonly mentioned, EDM can also be used for titanium. This process involves using electrical discharges to remove material, making it suitable for intricate designs and hard-to-machine materials like titanium.

Surface Finishing Services for Titanium Parts

Polishing: a mechanical finishing process that uses abrasives or chemical agents to create a high-gloss, mirror-like finish, improving corrosion resistance, cleanliness, and visual appeal.

Anodizing: creates a protective oxide layer on the titanium surface through an electrochemical process, increasing corrosion resistance, enhancing durability, and allowing for various color options.

Bead Blasting: propels small glass beads at high speed to produce a matte or satin finish, effectively removing tool marks and imperfections for a smoother appearance.

Powder Coating: involves electrostatically applying a dry powder to the titanium surface and curing it in an oven, resulting in a tough, uniform layer that enhances corrosion resistance, impact strength, and decorative appeal.

Electropolishing: smooths and brightens the titanium surface by chemically removing a thin layer of material, improving corrosion resistance and achieving a clean, sterile finish for medical and food processing applications.

Passivation: is a chemical treatment that enhances corrosion resistance by removing free iron and contaminants from the titanium surface, improving its longevity and performance in corrosive environments.

Electroplating: deposits a thin layer of metal onto the titanium surface to enhance properties such as corrosion resistance and wear resistance, though it can be expensive and environmentally challenging.

What is Titanium & What is it Used for – Titanium Properties

Titanium is a lustrous transition metal with a silver color, low density, and high strength. It’s a typically ideal material for aerospace, medical, military, chemical processing, and marine industry and extreme heat applications. Titanium grade 5 is the most popular titanium alloy. Titanium has some beneficial properties and characteristics like good ductility, high melting point, and low thermal conductivity, it’s resistant to corrosion from sea water, chlorine and more medias, extremely strong but lightweight, and non-magnetic. Compared to other metals, it’s as strong as steel, the density and strength of titanium are higher than aluminum. All of these features make CNC machining titanium parts have long working life even in challenging environments.

FAQs

Can titanium be CNC machined?

Yes, titanium can be CNC machined, although it presents several challenges due to its properties.

What is the machinability of titanium?

The machinability of titanium is generally considered to be difficult because of its high tensile strength and tendency to gall, which can lead to tool wear and poor surface finish.

What is the most suitable cutting speed for titanium?

The most suitable cutting speed for titanium varies depending on the specific grade and tooling used. For milling titanium alloys like Ti-6Al-4V, a good starting point for cutting speeds is approximately 150 to 300 surface feet per minute (SFM), which translates to about 45 to 90 meters per minute (m/min). When using carbide tools, the cutting speed can be higher, typically ranging from 50 to 250 SFM. For high-speed steel (HSS) drills, the recommended cutting speed is between 20 to 50 SFM. For carbide drills, the cutting speed can be increased to 50 to 130 SFM.

What is the best tool material to cut titanium with?

The best tool material for cutting titanium is carbide-tipped tools with coatings such as Titanium Aluminum Nitride (TiAlN), which help withstand the high temperatures generated during machining.

Is grade 5 titanium hard to machine?

Grade 5 titanium (Ti6Al4V) is known to be hard to machine due to its strength and work-hardening characteristics, requiring careful management of cutting parameters.

What is the difference between Type 2 and Type 5 titanium?

Type 2 is a commercially pure titanium with standard oxygen content, while Type 5 is an alloy containing aluminum and vanadium, which enhances its strength and corrosion resistance.
