Titanium is a very special material and requires a specific know-how for its machining. Poggipolini Design Department is equipped with the newest CAD-CAM systems with 3D formats and provides customized solutions based on specific requirements submitted by the client.

Machining simulations using large number of sophisticated mathematical models ensure the highest accuracy of machined parts.

Titanium is available on the market as commercially pure or as an alloy. Commercially pure titanium has an hexagonal close packed crystalline structure (Alfa phase) and increases its mechanical resistance (ultimate strength psi) with each grade classification. With the addition of alloy elements such as aluminium, vanadium and molybdenum, titanium becomes an alloy with Alfa + Beta crystalline structures. Alfa + Beta Titanium alloys are the most used commercially for their ductile-weight -mechanical resistance relationships. Of these classifications the most utilised are the 6Al 4V (grade 5) and the 3Al 2.5V (grade 9). The most common applications are the manufacture of bolts, mechanical components and chassis structural elements.

Titanium and its alloys are used for the following important factors:
