Frequently Asked Questions
What Are the Cutting Speeds and Feed Rates for Titanium?
Cutting speeds for titanium alloys typically range from 30–60 m/min for roughing and 50–100 m/min for finishing, with feed rates 0.05–0.25 mm/rev depending on tool type and part geometry.
Can Titanium be CNC Machined?
Yes, titanium can be CNC machined, but it requires special tooling, optimized cutting parameters, and advanced cooling to manage heat and tool wear.
How Difficult is it to Machine Titanium Alloys?
Titanium is moderately to highly difficult to machine due to its low thermal conductivity, high strength, and tendency to work-harden.
What is the Best Tooling for Machining Titanium?
Carbide, coated carbide, or polycrystalline diamond (PCD) tools are preferred, often with rigid setups and high-pressure coolant.
How Much Does 1 kg of Titanium Cost?
Prices vary by grade and market, but industrial titanium typically costs $8–$15 per kg.
Which Titanium Alloy is the Easiest to Machine?
Commercially pure titanium (TA1, TA2) is easier to machine than high-strength alloys like TC4/Ti-6Al-4V.
Is Titanium Easier to Machine Than Steel?
No, titanium is more difficult to machine than most steels because of low thermal conductivity and spring-back, requiring specialized tools and slower cutting speeds.
Which Grade of Titanium is Easiest to Machine?
TA1 and TA2 (grades 1 and 2) are the most machinable among common titanium alloys.
Why is Titanium so Difficult to Cut?
Titanium is hard to cut due to low thermal conductivity (heat concentrates at the cutting edge), high chemical reactivity at elevated temperatures (causing tool wear), and spring-back tendency, which requires precise machining strategies.

The manufacturer is strongly recommended. In the past few years of cooperation we have ordered several machined products from aluminum and stainless steel. These products are manufactured in compliance with tolerance requirements and require product finish. Now I have ordered another one. The service is excellent and any questions can be answered and resolved in time.
The dimensions are all customized according to my drawings no tolerance issues and the parts are delivered on time. I am very satisfied with it.
I pay much attention to the surface treatment aspect of this product. I was a little worried about the cooperation at the beginning. I am very satisfied with the product now and hope to cooperate for a long time.
