Abstract
Titanium materials are used increasingly in the aviation and aerospace industry in place of steel to enable lightweight construction, and manufacturing integral components mainly uses machining processes which involve enormous challenges and high production costs. The aim of the aviation and aerospace industry is to design a suitable process for economically manufacturing integral components. This paper presents associated experimental investigations and a process simulation to design a suitable process. Process improvement is achieved using hybrid machining, based on inductive heating and cryogenic cooling to increase productivity; results show an increased material removal rate and a reduction of tool wear when machining integral titanium components.
