What is Deep-hole gun drilling of pressure housings?

Deep-hole gun drilling of pressure housings capability for titanium components

Integrated manufacturing capability for Deep-hole gun drilling of pressure housings, supported by in-house QC, material certification, and engineering review.

Engineering Parameters & Capabilities

Laser drilling of titanium uses pulsed laser energy to create precise holes through percussion or trepanning methods. Hole diameters range from 0.05 mm to 3 mm with aspect ratios up to 20:1, specifically for housing. Deep housing for Aerospace, Marine present unique challenges: Thin-wall cylindrical sections (1.5–4 mm) with multiple mounting bosses require stress-relieved cast/wrought stock and sequenced roughing to prevent distortion.

Parameter Primary Method Alternative Method
Hole Diameter 0.05-3 mm 0.5 mm min (abrasive)
Aspect Ratio Up to 20:1 3:1
Speed 0.1-2 sec/hole (percussion) N/A
