Surface enhancement (shot peening) capability for titanium components
What is Surface enhancement (shot peening)?
Surface enhancement (shot peening) capability for titanium components
Integrated manufacturing capability for Surface enhancement (shot peening), supported by in-house QC, material certification, and engineering review.
Engineering Parameters & Capabilities
Titanium anodizing (AMS 2488) grows a controlled oxide layer through electrochemical conversion in an electrolyte bath. Type II produces interference colors (gold, blue, purple, green) for identification and cosmetics. Type III (hard anodizing) produces a thicker, abrasion-resistant oxide, specifically for titanium components. Precision titanium components present unique challenges: balancing dimensional accuracy with cost per part. Process selection (mill vs. turn vs. EDM vs. laser) is optimized for each feature.
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Coating | Electrochemical oxide conversion; not a deposit |
| Thickness | Type II: 0.5–5 µm / Type III: 5–25 µm |
| Colors | Gold (15V), blue (40V), green (70V), purple (90V) |
Engineering Capabilities & Limits
Integrated manufacturing capability for Surface enhancement (shot peening), supported by in-house QC, material certification, and engineering review.
Hole Types Supported
Heat Control Measures
Electrolyte bath at 20–24°C (Type II) or –5–0°C (Type III). Voltage ramp programmed to prevent localized overheating and burning.
Flatness & Stress Relief
No dimensional change—surface conversion only. Pre-treatment finish is preserved through the process.
Tolerance
Coating: 0.5–5 µm (Type II) / 5–25 µm (Type III); no dimensional change
