DEFORMATION PROCESSING OF TITANIUM AND ITS ALLOYS,

Abstract

The report covers the state of the art of both primary and secondary fabrication methods for titanium and its alloys and is oriented toward the interests of the designer and the manufacturing engineer. Methods currently employed for primary fabrication of titanium include rolling, extrusion, forging, and drawing of tube, rod and wire. Secondary metalworking operations are those precesses that produce finished parts from sheet, bar, or tubing using additional metalforming operations. The following secondary forming processes are discussed: brake bending, deep drawing, spinning and shear, drop hammer, trapped rubber, stretch, tube, roll, dimpling, joggling, and hot sizing. Equipment and tooling that are used for the various operations are discussed and illustrated wherever possibe. (Author)
