TITANIUM ALLOY IN CNC MACHINING
Titanium alloy refers to various alloy metals made of titanium and other metals. The titanium alloy used in CNC machining centers needs to have certain cutting performance, otherwise it is difficult to machine.
The main advantages of titanium as a CNC material are its excellent biocompatibility, high corrosion resistance, and excellent strength to weight ratio. In addition, titanium metal also has high ductility and machinability.
CNC TURNING TITANIUM PARTS
CNC turning is the most basic and common cutting method. Most titanium parts with rotating surfaces can be machined using turning methods, such as inner and outer cylindrical surfaces, inner and outer conical surfaces, end faces, grooves, threads, and rotary formed surfaces.
CNC turning generally refers to the process of machining parts on a CNC lathe. After calculation and processing, the CNC device sends out various control signals to control the movement of the machine tool and automatically processes parts according to the shape and size requirements of the drawings. Therefore, we support customization based on images.

CNC MILLING TITANIUM
Compared to CNC turning, CNC milling is more adaptable and flexible. 5-axis CNC milling can process titanium alloy parts with particularly complex contour shapes or difficult to control dimensions, such as shell parts, irregular parts, brackets, etc.
CNC milling generally refers to the process of machining parts on a CNC milling machine. Usually, customized titanium alloy parts require CNC turning and milling composite processing, usually turning first and then milling. Therefore, compared to CNC turning, CNC milling parts have higher accuracy and quality.
APPLICATION OF CNC TITANIUM PARTS
Titanium products processed by CNC are durable, corrosion-resistant, and aesthetically pleasing. And due to the biocompatibility of titanium itself, it can be widely used in the medical industry. The following are the most popular industries for applying CNC titanium parts:
- Medical industry (dentistry and orthopedics). Titanium is widely used in the medical field, especially in dentistry and orthopedics, due to its strength, low conductivity, and biocompatibility. Titanium medical dental parts include dental studs, dentures, and titanium orthopedic parts, which are mainly reflected in the field of prosthetics, such as ankle joint connectors.
- Marine/Naval Industry. Titanium has stronger corrosion resistance than most natural metals. Due to its resistance, it is very suitable for manufacturing propeller shafts, underwater robots, ball valves, rigging equipment, marine heat exchangers, pumps, exhaust pipe liners, fire protection system pipelines, and ship cooling systems.
- Automobile manufacturing. Titanium and aluminum are popular materials in the automotive industry. Titanium and its alloys are mainly used in the manufacturing of valves, valve springs, retainers, automotive stop brackets, ear nuts, engine piston pins, suspension springs, brake caliper pistons, engine rocker arms, internal combustion engine connecting rods, etc.
- Aerospace. Titanium has become a popular material in the aircraft industry due to its various ideal properties. These characteristics include high strength to weight ratio, excellent corrosion resistance, and performance in high heat environments. In the aerospace industry, seat components, casings, shafts, valves, turbine components and filter components, as well as components of oxygen production systems, are all made of titanium.
