Power Hacksaw Operations on Titanium and Its Alloys

Abstract

The object is to investigate the machinability of commercially pure titanium and three alloys of titanium. Power hacksawing tests were run on titanium grades Ti 75A, RC I30B, and Ti 130A. All tests were made with k pitch saws on a commercial machine operating at three different speeds. The saw materials represented were tungsten high-speed steel and molybdenum high-speed steel. All tests were made with 1:20 emulsion of soluble oil in water.
