Solution｜Introduction To The Machining of Titanium Alloy Watch Case
Solution • Introduction To The Machining of Titanium Alloy Watch Case
Users' demands for the texture and quality of consumer electronics are continuously increasing, and titanium alloy materials have become favored and praised by leading brands. Titanium alloys offer advantages of light weight, high strength, corrosion resistance, and heat resistance. In recent years, they have been widely adopted in smartwatches, extending the lifespan and stability of the devices, making them ideal materials for premium electronic products.
Characteristics of Titanium Alloy
- Difficult to machine—tends to stick to the milling cutter tip, accelerating chipping and edge wear.
- Poor thermal conductivity with slow heat dissipation—cutting heat concentrates at the cutter tip, leading to accelerated tool wear.
- Low temperature inertness, but particularly reactive at elevated temperatures, which accelerates diffusion wear and work hardening.
- Demands higher performance and reliability from cutting tools.
