The attention of the turning factory for processing titanium alloy parts is as follows:
1. Due to the small elasticity of titanium alloy, CNC machining factories will pay attention to the clamping deformation and force deformation of the turning workpiece during the machining process to ensure the machining accuracy of the turning workpiece; when installing the workpiece, the clamping force should not be too large, as it is necessary When adding auxiliary support.
2. If a cutting fluid containing chlorine is used, hydrogen will be decomposed and released at high temperatures during the cutting process, and hydrogen will be absorbed by titanium and cause hydrogen embrittlement. It may also cause high temperature stress corrosion cracking of titanium alloys.
3. The chloride in the cutting fluid may also decompose or volatilize toxic gases during use. Therefore, the CNC machining factory should take safety protection measures when using it, otherwise it should not be used; after cutting, the parts should be cleaned with a chlorine-free cleaning agent in time to remove residual chlorine.
4. Professional CNC machining factories know that when processing titanium alloy parts, it is forbidden to use lead or zinc-based alloys to make tools and fixtures that contact titanium alloys, as well as copper, tin, cadmium and their alloys.
5. All tools, fixtures or other equipment in contact with the titanium alloy must be clean; the cleaned titanium alloy parts must be protected from grease or fingerprints, otherwise it may cause salt (sodium chloride) stress corrosion in the future.
The above are the points that VMT CNC machining factories will pay attention to when CNC mahcining turning titanium alloy parts.
