Working Titanium Sheet Metal

Titanium sheet is employed in many applications across aerospace medical industrial and oil and gas industries.

Working titanium sheet metal.

The fabrication of titanium demands attention to cleanliness. Hardened tool steel must be used for adequate die life. Selected for its unique combination of high strength light weight corrosion resistance bio compatibility and higher temperature performance. One of the crucial challenges of titanium is heat dissipation.

Titanium industries selection of titanium sheet is illustrated below. Titanium cannot be soldered with either soft or hard solders. You will find that it is more amenable to stretching than compressing. Welding can only be done under a protective gas.

Dies must be rigid and sharp to prevent cracking of the work metal. Compared to machining other metals a larger percentage of the heat in a titanium machining process instead goes into the tool. The area set aside for titanium should be free of air drafts moisture dust grease and other contaminants which might find their way into or onto the metal. Titanium industries selection of titanium sheet offered at locations worldwide.

Titanium grade 5 6al 4v sheet is utilized in numerous applications across the aerospace medical industrial and oil and gas industries. It is not uncommon for shops which handle several metals to isolate an area to be used especially for titanium. In this metal relatively little of the heat generated during the machining operation is ejected with the chip. Ganoksin is sponsored by.
