Efficient Machining Solutions in Titanium Alloys

Length: 25 min Speaker: John Palmer, ATI Metals

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Highly efficient machining of titanium looks not just at the machine tool, but also machining conditions, such as tooling, tool paths, cutting speeds, depth of cut and temperatures in the cutting zone. In order to drive down costs, manufacturers must optimize all critical aspects of the cutting zone for greater productivity and extended tool life. This presentation discusses the collaboration of ATI’s metallurgists, scientists and engineers in providing an effective understanding, techniques and solutions for improving the machinability of titanium alloys. Through the data they collected, ATI examines all factors that impact the machinability of titanium, including machine tools, component material, machining conditions and the cutting-zone environment. Specific considerations are given to cutter geometries and how they influence conditions of metal removal and temperature.
