Titanium Forged Parts
Titanium Forged Parts
All Metals & Forge Group manufactures high-performance titanium forged parts for applications that demand exceptional strength, low weight, and corrosion resistance. Titanium offers the highest strength-to-density ratio among common forging materials. Therefore, engineers select it for aerospace, marine, and high-stress structural components.
Typical end uses include aircraft structures, rockets, pressure vessels, heat exchangers, offshore equipment, and submarine components. In addition, titanium performs extremely well in saltwater and aggressive marine environments due to its natural corrosion resistance.
Although titanium provides outstanding performance, it carries a higher material and processing cost. As a result, military, aerospace, and high-end industrial programs use it most frequently. However, when weight reduction and corrosion resistance are critical, titanium often delivers long-term value.
Titanium alloys for open die forging and seamless rolled rings are include:
Commercially Pure (CP) GR 2, GR 3, GR 4, GR 5, and Ti-6AL-4V. Common specifications for titanium alloys include ASTM B381, AMS 4928, AMS 4931, SAE AMS 4921, and MIL-T-9047.
Metallurgy and Alloy Characteristics
Titanium metallurgy involves controlled phase transformations between alpha, alpha-beta, and beta structures. Because alloy chemistry determines final properties, careful selection remains essential.
The most widely used alloy is Ti-6Al-4V, an alpha-beta titanium alloy that balances strength, toughness, and corrosion resistance. Alloying elements such as aluminum, tin, molybdenum, vanadium, and chromium influence forgeability and mechanical performance. Fortunately, most titanium grades offer good to excellent forgeability when processed under proper temperature control.
Through controlled forging and heat treatment, we optimize tensile strength, fatigue resistance, and structural integrity for demanding service conditions.
Applications of Titanium Forged Parts
Titanium forged parts serve industries where weight savings and strength directly impact performance. Aerospace and defense programs rely heavily on titanium forgings for structural components and engine systems. Marine and offshore industries use titanium to resist saltwater corrosion. Additionally, chemical processing facilities specify titanium for heat exchangers and pressure vessels exposed to aggressive media.
Because titanium maintains strength at elevated temperatures while resisting corrosion, it performs well in both high-heat and corrosive environments.
Forging and Heat Treatment Expertise
Titanium requires strict temperature control during forging. Improper processing can affect microstructure and mechanical properties. Therefore, we apply carefully monitored forging cycles and controlled cooling practices to maintain structural consistency.
Post-forge heat treatment further refines the material’s mechanical properties. Depending on the alloy and application, we adjust strength, ductility, and toughness to meet specification requirements.
Quality Control and Machining Capabilities
All Metals & Forge Group operates under an ISO 9001:2015 and AS9100D registered quality system. We begin each project by reviewing end use, required mechanical properties, surface condition, geometry, and delivery schedule.
Every titanium forged part undergoes ultrasonic testing to verify internal integrity. In addition, we rough machine forgings to within 3 mm of finished dimensions. This process reduces CNC machining time and overall project cost. Our standard rough-machined finish is 250 RMS, which allows precise inspection before final machining.
When required, we perform finish machining to tolerances as tight as ±0.001 inch with 64 or 32 RMS surface finishes. Many suppliers deliver titanium forgings in the black or at 500 RMS; however, our machining standards significantly reduce downstream processing.
From inquiry through shipment, we actively manage quality at every stage. Whether producing a prototype, a flight-critical component, or a production run, we deliver titanium forged parts built for demanding performance requirements.
All Metals & Forge Group takes great pride in maintaining one of the most stringent ISO9001, AS9100 quality systems in the open die forging and seamless rolled ring industry. It begins with learning the customer’s end use, required forging surface condition, mechanical properties of the specified material and alloy, forged shape, heat treatment, delivery need, and competitive price, coupled with forging soundness proven by ultrasonic testing, and care in packing goods to arrive in pristine condition at the customer’s desired location. Every step is monitored by the quality system at AMFG and continuously improved.
Save Time And Money
AMFG performs rough machining to within 3mm of finish dimensions to reduce the CNC cost at the customer’s machine shop for all the forged shapes the company produces. The rough machined surface condition is 250 RMS so that proper quality testing can be performed on each part – the AMFG standard.
The company can perform finish machining to within .001 of an inch for final tolerance and 64 or 32 RMS surface finish. This level of quality and precision is unique in an industry where other companies’ parts are often delivered black, as forged, or with a rough machined surface of 500 RMS without the internal or external steps and dimensions to reduce machining costs.
From inquiry to invoice, All Metals & Forge Group quality is managed and not assumed. Whether the need is for one part, an entire project, or a production run, AMFG delivers.
