Abstract

While machining methods for titanium are basically those practiced for more than twenty years, the development of an extensive machinability database now allows selection of optimum operating conditions for specific machining operations. Care must be exercised to avoid loss of surface integrity, especially during grinding, or a dramatic loss in mechanical behavior such as fatigue can result. To date, techniques such as high-speed machining have not improved the machinability of titanium. A breakthrough appears to require the development of new tool materials.
