Titanium is a material that offers excellent properties; however, it is costly and time-consuming to form. Fraunhofer researchers are now giving this multi-purpose metal another chance. To all intents ...

Part 1 of the Machining Titanium whitepaper, we covered the challenges of machining titanium due to its high strength, low thermal conductivity, high modulus of elasticity, and shearing mechanism; and ...

Titanium alloys are prized for their exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance and high-temperature performance, making them indispensable in aerospace, automotive and biomedical ...

It used to be that, when designing a new military jet fighter, performance and capability took priority over cost. However, with the end of the cold war, defence contractors are finding that cost and ...
