[PSUBS-MAILIST] machining titanium

[hank pronk]

I am working toward a magnetic coupler for gamma.  When I was at Nuytco, I discovered the secret how they make it work.  A titanium barrier between the magnets is the trick.  I would need a 4.5 in dia tube capped at one end, aprox 3in deep with a flange at the other end.  The tube is .125 thick.

Very tough stuff.  What are you trying to do?   Very strong but brittle unless it's combined with alloys.  I would think slow rpm with lots of coolant and carbide tool.
