What is Housings / Chambers / Enclosures?
📦 Housings / Chambers / Enclosures represents a complete system of precision titanium components engineered for Aerospace & Defense applications. Box/cylindrical thin-wall structure with mounting lugs, flanges, viewports The system integrates 1 distinct component types manufactured through 3 specialized processes.
Key manufacturing processes for this system include 5-axis CNC roughing for rotorcraft geometry, Heat treatment (STA) with Class 6g gauge, Wire EDM contour profiling with Class 6g gauge, CMM per AS9102 with Class 6g gauge, each selected and qualified to meet component-specific requirements.
Engineering & Design Principles
Material: Grade 5 (Ti-6Al-4V) offers 45% weight reduction vs stainless steel. For aerospace/medical housings. Use Grade 2 CP-Ti if only corrosion resistance needed.
Form: Plate welding is most economical for housings. CNC cutting + automated welding reduces allowance. Consider investment casting for high volume.
Standards & Material Specifications
Standards: ASTM B265 Gr5 annealed plate, post-weld stress relief, 100% PT
