The high strength and low
density of titanium and
other high temperature
alloys proffer these
materials as the metals of
choice for aerospace and
aviation applications. High performance, engine power to weight ratios; airframe strength; aircraft speed and range; and other critical factors could
not be achieved without titanium. Titanium alloys
are capable of operating at temperatures from sub zero to 600°C; are used in engines for discs, blades, shafts and casings from the front fan to the last stage of the high pressure compressor; and at the rear end of the engine for lightly loaded fabrications such as plug and nozzle assemblies.
Working with the difficult
to machine alloys used in
today's aircraft present
major challenges to
manufacturers. Metal
removal rates, tool life,
product quality, and
machining security are
critical to efficient, safe
component manufacturing.
Today, there is more
pressure than ever on
performance.
At ATI Metalworking, our
experts have worked with
major aerospace
organizations in innovating
and testing next-generation
products and services that
are essential to
successfully working with
materials like titanium.
We are working with the
materials of tomorrow to
create effective, efficient
solutions for you today. |
