Machining thin-wall parts Titanium alloys’ elasticity, which is beneficial and desirable for finished parts, encourages deflection and vibration during heavy machining cuts. Under cutting pressures, ...

Laser forming is a deposition process which can produce titanium parts directly from CAD drawings. It has advantages over casting and machining in certain applications. The process, advantages, ...

Producing high-performance titanium alloy parts -- whether for spacecraft, submarines or medical devices -- has long been a slow, resource-intensive process. Even with advanced metal 3D-printing ...

It was back in 2015 that we first heard about the Helix, a sharp-looking, compact-folding, lightweight titanium bike. One successful Kickstarter campaign later, it has now finally entered ...

Magnetized printing precision The process is done by providing unprecedented real-time and detailed observations of the forces at work during the laser-based 3D printing of metal alloys.

With a single leap from tabletop to the microscale, engineers have produced the world's first practical Titanium-sapphire laser on a chip, democratizing a once-exclusive technology.

Engineers have created an ultrastrong titanium alloy, the highest strength-to-weight ratio among all 3D-printed metals to date, creating unprecedented mechanical performance.

Using a common titanium alloy, engineers manufactured latticelike structures composed of hollow struts—each imbued with an additional, thin band running throughout it.

The aviation industry has long relied on aviation titanium alloy for their exceptional performance characteristics—high strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, and ability to withstand extreme ...

Engineers have now demonstrated how crushed Martian rock could be mixed with a titanium alloy to make 3D-printable building materials.
