Two deep processing technologies of titanium materials--Bending Shaping&Stamping Molding

Bending shaping stands as a fundamental technique in the deep processing of titanium materials. It involves skillfully blending plastic and elastic deformations to sculpt titanium into desired forms. Precision in controlling the spring back is paramount during bending, ensuring the accuracy of the final shape. Titanium's flexibility allows for bending angles surpassing 90°, provided the minimum bending radius criteria are met. For titanium tubes with diameters under 50mm, cold bending emerges as a viable choice. Post-bending stress relief annealing is recommended to optimize component performance. Thermal bending, categorized into pulling and pushing variants, leverages heat to reduce the material yield strength and plasticity, significantly curbing spring back angles, ideal for intricate bending needs.

Stamping molding of titanium plates and alloys presents distinct challenges and opportunities. Notably more intricate compared to other materials due to larger bending radii, titanium processing in this realm demands finesse. Cold forming finds its niche in crafting thin-walled components with minimal deformation and relaxed precision requirements. On the other hand, hot forming shines in achieving substantial deformations at varied temperatures, especially suiting the shaping of thick plate blanks and sizable components. Combining the strengths of cold and hot forming, post-forming heat correction follows pre-stamping, ensuring the realization of precise shapes and dimensions.
