Titanium Machining

Trace-A-Matic specializes in titanium CNC machining parts and assemblies using cutting-edge CNC mills, lathes, and 5-axis machining centers. Years of experience provide expert knowledge of titanium characteristics and how this material group reacts when machined. Titanium is a corrosion-resistant material with a high tensile strength. Tool selection, cutting pass depths, mill/lathe feed and speed, chip control, and high-pressure coolant are critical in controlling heat generation, which can cause part movement and tool deflection during the machining process. This level of skill ensures world-class precision machining that meets or exceeds the most demanding tolerances. The innovative Trace-A-Matic team is always available to review and guide you during the design process. Our goal is 100% customer satisfaction, providing AS 9100/ISO 9001:2015 certified quality machining resulting in timely turnaround and on-time delivery.

Titanium Machining

Ti Melting Point
3,038°F

Titanium Characteristics:
  • High strength to weight ratio
  • Exceptional resistance to corrosion
  • Very flexible
  • Non-toxic and non-allergenic
  • Ti 6al-4v grade titanium is commonly used in the medical industry

In manufacturing, the utilization of titanium and titanium alloys presents both challenges and opportunities. Renowned for its remarkable strength-to-weight ratio, titanium, and its alloys exhibit exceptional properties, including high ultimate tensile strength. When engaging in machining processes, considerations such as axial depth of cut become pivotal, impacting the efficiency and precision of operations. Coatings like titanium aluminum nitride applied to cutting tools enhance tool longevity and productivity. The titanium machining process demands meticulous attention to detail, especially when transitioning from thick to thin milling, necessitating adjustments in feed rates and cutting parameters. Surface finishing is crucial in refining the final product, mainly when dealing with pure titanium or alloys, ensuring both aesthetic appeal and functional integrity are upheld.
