Abstract
The French titanium community has been very active in the past four years for developing new applicative opportunities in all traditional sectors: aerospace, industrial, medical, defence etc. Thanks to good connections between academia and industry, the research activities are supporting the main priorities: improvement of efficiency, reduction of cost and control of the quality. This presentation will give an overview of the most significant progress made in France during the period.
Highlights
Since its creation in 1994, the French Titanium Association brings together companies and laboratories interested in titanium and in it implementation
Aware of the difficulties faced by companies in terms of access to raw materials, the French authorities created the Committee for Strategic Metals (COMES), forum for consultation between the French actors: ministries, public bodies, industry and professional federations representing the industry
In the domain of the production of high temperature titanium parts, work has been carried out to combine the hot forming (HF) with the superplastic forming (SPF) in order to finalise the areas of great deformation on parts with strong deflection [25]
Summary
Since its creation in 1994, the French Titanium Association brings together companies and laboratories interested in titanium and in it implementation. Thesis work is often carried out in larger projects involving research organisations, technical centres and industrialists
