- Product Introduction
Product Overview
Titanium Billets are semi-finished metallurgical materials used for industrial forging, CNC machining, and component manufacturing.
Compared with raw cast ingots, forged titanium billets provide:
Refined Microstructure: Homogeneous grain distribution through thermomechanical processing.
Higher Density: Internal porosity and cast voids are eliminated during forging cycles.
Machining Stability: Reduced residual stress minimizes dimensional distortion during milling and turning.

Manufacturing & Quality Control Process
Every billet goes through controlled thermodynamic steps and verification:
Vacuum Melting: Double or triple Vacuum Arc Remelting (VAR) or Electron Beam Melting (EBM) to eliminate non-metallic inclusions.
Forging: Multi-directional hydraulic forging cycles to break down cast structures and refine grain size.
Heat Treatment: Stress-relief annealing to stabilize properties.
Surface Finishing: Peeling, turning, or centerless grinding to remove surface defects.
Non-Destructive Testing: 100% Ultrasonic Testing (UT) per AMS 2631 / ASTM A388 to check for internal flaws.
Laboratory Testing: Chemical check via Optical Emission Spectroscopy (OES) and mechanical tensile testing per heat number.
