Titanium Castings
Titanium castings and nickel-titanium alloys are some of the most versatile and useful on the market today from prosthetic implants, dental prosthetics and their use in aircraft and satellites, where strength and lightweight are essential. |

Nonferrous Castings
Nonferrous castings, including copper-based castings, also became essential to the modern world with the proliferation of automobiles, televisions, airplanes, and telecommunications equipment. |

Net Shape Castings
Die casting is a manufacturing process in which molten metal is forced under considerable pressure into a steel mold or die to form products. |
|

Corrosion Resistance
Titanium alloys exhibit high pitting potential. Titanium in these alloys prevents intergranular chromium-carbide and nitride precipitation during welding or processing. Because of the ferritic structure and controlled composition, the alloys exhibit good resistance to general, intergranular and pitting corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking. |

Titanium Foundry
The casting process of metals is a well-known one. Almost all metals are brought to a molten stage at some point. In the as-cast condition, all the alloys showed lamellar structure with some degree of segregation and coring. |

Investment Castings
Investment castings can be produced with a very close control dimensions eliminating machining in some of the products. It's to the buyer's interest to develop the product with minimum machining allowance to enable the buyer to take the advantage of the process. Investment castings can often be made to final sizes, ready for use. |

Rapid Prototypes
Rapid prototypes can be invaluable for new product development, when it is not economical to machine a sample part, or when the design involves curved or radius surfaces which are difficult to create using traditional means. |

Machining Titanium
Titanium's combination of properties have long made it attractive to the aerospace industry, and it has found a wide range of uses in industrial applications due to advantages over other metals in some situations. Titanium's tensile strength, for example, is comparable to that of many alloy steels, but its density is only around 60 percent of steel's. |
|
| |
Welding Titanium
Titanium alloys are considered to have good weldability, but due to their extreme reactivity, precautions must be taken to shield the molten pool and the hot metal from contact with air. Clean the metal with utmost care, and chemically pickle or at least stainless steel wire brush. |

Casting Titanium
The wax pattern with pour funnel is dipped into a ceramic slurry, removed from theslurry and coated with sand or vermiculite to form a ceramic layer on the wax pattern. |
|
| |
Titanium Alloys
Titanium alloys are becoming attractive as structural materials because of their high strength and low density. Titanium and platinum may be incorporated into the same sonically decomposable precursor compound, or separate compounds of the metals may be used. |
|
| |
Titanium Metallurgy
To push titanium down into the realm of the super light, the modulus becomes a problem, because then the frame gets too flexible. |

Properties Of Titanium
Titanium's obvious advantages include corrosion resistance, low density, and high tensile strength. Titanium can be used in one of several commercially pure grades or may be alloyed to increase certain characteristics. Titanium is a metallic element which in its pure form, possesses very low strength and would be quite unsuitable for the moderate to high stress requirements of the parts of a wood head. |
