Q.A．
Q.: Where does titanium come from?
A.: Titanium is an abundant element. It is found in North America, South America, Europe, Africa, China, Australia, Russia, as well as other countries.
Q.: How do you weld titanium?
A.: Welding titanium is not difficult. It requires adherence to rules of cleanliness and exclusion of reactive gases including air. Welding by means of the TIG process (Tungston Electrode Inert Gas) using Argon gas shielding is most commonly used.

 

Q.: Titanium machining techniques?
A.: Machining by all of the customary methods is being done. Some preferred procedures are recommended; such as sharp tools, rigid set-ups, heavy feeds, slow speeds and an abundance of soluble coolant. Work hardening rate is less than that for stainless steels. Drilling and cold saw cutting require sharp, clean tools with good chip removal and ample coolant
