Working with CP-Ti Grade 2 (AM Powder) BJT-SINT

Is CP-Ti Grade 2 (AM Powder) easy to machine?

Use sharp uncoated-carbide or PVD tools, low surface speed (30–60 m/min), heavy positive rake, high-pressure flood coolant; never dwell — Ti work-hardens, galls and fine chips/dust are a fire hazard.

Can CP-Ti Grade 2 (AM Powder) be welded?

Excellent GTAW/EBW/LBW weldability provided the weld pool and hot HAZ are fully shielded with argon/helium trailing and backing gas; welds stay ductile, discoloration beyond straw indicates contamination.

Can CP-Ti Grade 2 (AM Powder) be formed, bent or molded?

Parts are net-shape from the printer; recoater/scan strategy plus 600 °C stress relief before plate removal controls warp, and powder must be sieved and handled under low-moisture inert conditions to limit O/H pickup.

What surface finishes work on CP-Ti Grade 2 (AM Powder)?

Support removal, blasting, tumbling, chemical etch or abrasive-flow polishing to cut as-built Ra 8–20 µm; anodizes to bright interference colors and passivates naturally per ASTM F86 for medical use.

CP-Ti Grade 2 (AM Powder) BJT-SINT — frequently asked

What is CP-Ti Grade 2 (AM Powder) BJT-SINT used for?

CP-Ti Grade 2 (AM Powder) BJT-SINT is typically used for dental frameworks, chemical process components, marine hardware, heat exchanger parts and medical device housings. In short: most ductile AM titanium; unalloyed corrosion-resistant powder; medical and chemical duty.

What is the yield strength of CP-Ti Grade 2 (AM Powder) BJT-SINT?

CP-Ti Grade 2 (AM Powder) BJT-SINT has a typical yield strength of 350 MPa (50.8 ksi) and a tensile strength of 460 MPa (66.7 ksi) — weaker than 79% of titanium grades. Strength varies by condition: see the 2 listed tempers.

Is CP-Ti Grade 2 (AM Powder) BJT-SINT easy to machine?

Not especially — machinability is rated fair (40/100, better than 93% of titanium grades). Use sharp uncoated-carbide or PVD tools, low surface speed (30–60 m/min), heavy positive rake, high-pressure flood coolant; never dwell — Ti work-hardens, galls and fine chips/dust are a fire hazard.

Can CP-Ti Grade 2 (AM Powder) BJT-SINT be welded?

Yes — weldability is rated very good (70/100). Excellent GTAW/EBW/LBW weldability provided the weld pool and hot HAZ are fully shielded with argon/helium trailing and backing gas; welds stay ductile, discoloration beyond straw indicates contamination.

What surface finishes work on CP-Ti Grade 2 (AM Powder) BJT-SINT?

What is the maximum service temperature of CP-Ti Grade 2 (AM Powder) BJT-SINT?

CP-Ti Grade 2 (AM Powder) BJT-SINT is rated for continuous use to about 300°C (572 °F). Strength falls off well before that limit — check the elevated-temperature data for load-bearing parts.
