Beta Forging of Titanium Alloys,

Abstract

The report discusses the current situation in beta forging of titanium alloys, based on a literature search plus the author's personal interviews with both using and forging industries. Manufacturers and users of beta forgings are listed in the report. Strength and fatigue properties of beta forgings are described and compared with the properties in structures forged by conventional means. Control of properties by microstructural control is discussed and illustrated by several photographs. Forging designs and practices are discussed. (Author)
