Titanium CNC machining can be challenging. Titanium, a chemical element, is stronger than industrial metals such as stainless steel. Yet titanium’s strength isn’t all that makes it difficult (but not impossible) to machine with CNC equipment. Because titanium has low thermal conductivity, generated heat flows slowly through it. This means that the heat generated during […]
