How long does it take to run the complete part and what's the weight of the finished part? And an awesome video thanks for all the opportunities with your academy!
Hi, Titan, that's a beautiful work. I just want to share my idea. For the bowl shape is that better if we use a 1/2 endmill with a .06R to finish it. So that you can also use the same cutter to finish the bottom flat surface with big step over instead of .005 step over surfacing. It may speed up a little bit.
Good thoughts, especially on the floor. Because a Ball has a .25 Rad it keeps the wall smooth with a .005 step over... .06 is much smaller and would take way more passes to make an equal finish... Also, I wanted to show 3 styles of 3D that worked well together.
It's great to see somebody doing what they are passionate about and sharing it with others. You were born to do this and are so lucky to be able to live it. More power to ya
honestly, that is a big part to keep the work intressting. To acually get to see where the part is going to be used is so much more fulfilling as a machinist and gives you a better understanding of what it is you're trying to manifature.
Cylo's Garage he used a 100+ lbs titanium puck which probably costed him over over $10k. I find it hard to believe that he would just use it for a demonstration
@@cylosgarage In the aerospace academy website it talks about as a Propulsion fuel manifold of some kind. aerospaceacademy.com/series/titan-516-propulsion-fuel-manifold/516-part-01-titan-516-pre-op-1-set-up-face-profile
I love these videos! I'm not a machinist, but find myself super intrigued by the process. Curious to know...how are the surfaces covered by the chucks ultimately finished? Thanks!
Here some 2"x1"x3" scrap titanium blocks to use under my lowrider's back bumper to shower the road with sparks at night costs $180 - That chunk is probably $18,000 !!!
nice set of vids. could you do a data run down at end of a series of vids, you know. material removed cost of material tips used cost of tips time to machine and cad ect ect
Very cool project.. Thanks for slowing down and focusing. As with all fancy parts I always wonder what is truly functional and what is simply the wet dream of some over paid engineer who doesn't understand what it takes to accomplish such a feat.
Im looking for a 5axis machine for making, stainless steel/titanium watch cases, watch backs and dials with high end finish and limited quantity. Do you have any suggestion on company and model???
Hey Titan, I was wondering if I am able to get the model for this part or something similar so that I can go through the same process you went through for machining it. Im 17 and really want to get this experience. Thanks!!
with all the 3d milling code, how large is the program? does the machine take the whole thing, are you drip feeding, or putting sections of the program in?
Looks like a wheel hub for a business jet. Can you tell me what it's for? If not I understand you prolly signed NDA's etc.. As an A&P Mechanic I'd like to know out of curiosity. Thanks for sharing these videos on this titanium part, it was very cool.
Really beast, but.., why do you use such a squat tool holder and such a slipped tool? doesn't it compromise the surface quality? In these cases we use a popular german hydraulic tool holders ( HSK-63), with the tool exposed the necessary,
This is actually an HSK100 hydraulic also called the HydroForce from Kennametal... I also needed the tool to hang out to walk down the deepest pocket without the holder hitting. I could have used a few tools etc... stub and long one but was more concerned with just getting it all done with 1 tool.
@@TITANSofCNC OK, with just one tool for finishing the whole part, you also have the most homogeneous surface and also finish the series of pockets without a radius remachining (but I would have used a different finishing strategy, such as a spiral or equal scallop, covering the pockets, but that's another story) In addition to saving tool change time, even if on N hours of finishing I don't know how much this can affect.I am curious, because by the videos some things behind the scenes are not clear, I work with machines that have 100/150 tools in stock, where once I find the right tool / tool holder setup I try not to make changes for a long time. You, I think, need to change setup at each part, but in this case have you taken Kennametal tool and tool holder dedicated to this job?
I was going to get a coffee, but I caught myself not wanting to pause the video, because I didn't want to stop the cutter while it was on the workpiece and chip the cutting edge....
@@alexkern9134 I'm a tool maker (hardened tool steels predominantly) and I can tell you if you finished a block that size in less than a day you did something wrong... Those finishing opps are what we'd call a weekend runner. This would probably be around the 30 hour mark im guessing. But wouldn't be surprised if its more.
Since he won’t say in the videos and I can’t find it in the comments I’m gonna guess what it’s for and then leave without subscribing. This channel, while super fun, is for the CNC profess and has no respect for the casual viewer by explaining the purpose for the part they are making or the engineering behind it. (My guess: central bracket -between engines/fuel tank-for a prototype reusable launch vehicle)
