Abstract

Owing to the excellent corrosion resistance of titanium alloys, they are widely used as materials for aircraft components. However, in terms of machining, dimensional deformation methods vary significantly, such as forging, owing to their difficult-to-cut property and the uncontrollable vibration generated during machining. A method to minimize the vibration generated during machining by applying advanced tools and controlling the sequence of machining processes, which can improve the machinability and precision of titanium alloy-forged low-angle components, is proposed herein. Using the proposed tool and based on a process order experiment, the efficiency of the machining process is verified by measuring the dimensional deformation of the low-angle component.
