Titanium alloy development at an alarming rate

As the representative of the United States Bureau of Mines research and production facilities for titanium casting technology in-depth research, development of the melting and titanium precision casting process is suitable for titanium , which is a low-cost processing and forming of titanium alloys opened up a new path. As a method of casting forming complex shapes can be directly manufactured parts eliminates a lot of the subsequent titanium alloy pump processing steps , thus increasing material utilization and reduce manufacturing costs. According to statistics, titanium forgings material utilization is Titanium sheets generally not more than 20 %, while the common titanium alloy casting material utilization is 50% , for precision casting is as high as 70% or more , which can be seen the great potential of titanium alloy casting .
