Custom Fixture & Tooling Fabrication (B.CNC 💜)
// Prototype
Manufacturing & Engineering Project
Titanium Medical Device Component Prototype
Biocompatible Grade 5 Titanium (Ti-6Al-4V) prototype component featuring complex 3D organic surface contours.
// MANUFACTURING CHALLENGE
Critical Technical Risk in the Component
Preventing cutting-edge thermal concentration and elastic springback caused by titanium’s low thermal conductivity and low modulus of elasticity.
// ENGINEERING SOLUTION (APPROACH)
Applied CNC Machining Strategy
High-pressure through-tool coolant combined with variable-helix micro-grain carbide end mills evacuated heat into the chip while preventing work-hardening.
// VERIFICATION & METROLOGY
Achieved Results & Tolerance Compliance
- Clean metallurgical cut free from thermal burn or alpha-case formation
- Crisp micro-features and seamless 3D surface transitions
- Rapid First-Article delivery ready for laboratory functional testing
