Hot forming Titanium Sheet

Hot forming is rapidly becoming the preferred method to manipulate titanium into complex shapes because of the multiple advantages it offers and the increasing availability of high-quality forming equipment. During the hot forming process, both the tool and blank are heated between 900°F and 1,600°F in a dedicated press to increase the malleability of the material. The introduction of heat temporarily changes the material's forming characteristics resulting in near-net-shape parts with consistent wall thicknesses and virtually no springback or cracking.

Since the heat acts as a forming agent, tonnage requirements on hot forming presses are typically much lower than those on cold forming presses. To improve forming efficiency, additional press options like bed shuttles, insulated doors, data acquisition, and Active Leveling Control can be included in the machine's design.

Cold forming is used in titanium applications primarily because it is a process with which they are already familiar. Cold forming does not require specialized equipment, PPE is simple, and cycle times are typically shorter than other methods because no heating of the material is required. While the shorter cycle times are attractive, they do not take into account the additional time required for secondary finishing operations (annealing, flanging, trimming, etc.). In addition, due to the elongation properties of titanium, springback, galling and cracking are common by-products of the cold forming process. In order to overcome these adverse effects, the cold forming presses used for titanium cold forming require very high tonnages (1000 tons or more).
