Titanium
Titanium Photo Etching for Precision Parts
Titanium offers the highest strength-to-weight ratio of any metal material. It is also highly corrosion resistant and is biocompatible, making it ideal for medical applications, including joint replacement and implantable devices.
Titanium is available in numerous grades, each of which offers slightly different characteristics. When photo chemical machining titanium, it is important to know how these varying characteristics can affect the process. The team at Vaga Industries has the photo etching expertise to process all grades of titanium with equal precision and accuracy.
Vaga Industries’ Titanium Photo Chemical Machining Services
By photo chemical machining titanium, Vaga Industries can produce high precision, tight tolerance parts that match our customers’ exact design specifications. We work with all grades of titanium, and can help you select the right grade for your unique application.
Photo etching titanium produces burr-free parts with no work hardening, no heat affected zones, and unaffected surface finishes. We can use half- or partial-etching techniques to create intricate details, such as logos or lettering, that vary in thickness but do not completely cut through the material.
Chemical etching is a cost effective and easily repeatable method for producing titanium parts and components from even the most complex designs. It is ideal for high- and low-volume production, as well as prototyping.
Vaga has a large inventory of titanium, in various grades, and can readily provide the materials required for your project. We can also work with customer-supplied titanium.
