Custom CNC Machined Titanium Alloy Gears

Product Overview

The titanium alloy spur gear shown is a representative example of FlexiTurn’s custom CNC machining capabilities for transmission components. This part features a machined outer tooth profile, a central bore with keyway, a raised hub, lightening holes, and circumferential bolt holes. All geometric features, tooth form, and dimensions are produced according to customer 2D or 3D CAD files.

FlexiTurn’s core offering is the CNC machining process: converting your design data into a functional titanium transmission component with controlled tooth profile accuracy, bore concentricity, keyway fit, and consistent surface finish. FlexiTurn supports orders from one-off prototypes and low-volume batches through to high-volume production.

Machining Capabilities Demonstrated

Machining this titanium gear requires multiple operations, reflecting FlexiTurn’s process control and experience with difficult-to-machine materials:

• CNC turning for the central bore, raised hub profile, and face squaring
• 4-axis CNC milling for the outer tooth profile, keyway, and bolt holes
• CNC drilling for lightening holes and mounting holes with consistent positioning
• Deburring and edge finishing to remove sharp edges and burrs
• Optional secondary operations: titanium anodizing, laser engraving, and surface polishing

Tooth profile milling is suitable for prototypes and medium-precision gears. For high-precision or high-volume tooth forms, FlexiTurn confirms whether rolling, gear shaping, or grinding is required and whether it is performed in-house or through qualified partners before quoting.

Available Materials

FlexiTurn regularly machines titanium alloys for high-strength, corrosion-resistant gear applications, including Grade 2 commercially pure titanium, Grade 5 (Ti-6Al-4V), and Grade 9 titanium. For applications requiring alternative material specifications, FlexiTurn also machines equivalent gears in 304/316L stainless steel, 6061-T6 aluminum, and high-strength alloy steels.

Tolerances and Quality Assurance

FlexiTurn maintains tight dimensional control on critical gear features. For titanium alloy gears, typical tolerances are ±0.02 mm on bore diameter and tooth profile positional accuracy; tighter tolerances can be achieved to meet specific performance requirements. FlexiTurn performs in-process dimensional verification and final inspection on every order. Material test certificates and dimensional inspection reports are available upon request. FlexiTurn’s quality management system is ISO 9001:2015 certified.

Specialized Titanium Machining Expertise

Titanium alloys present unique machining challenges, including high work hardening rates, low thermal conductivity, and rapid tool wear. FlexiTurn applies titanium-specific machining parameters, sharp carbide tooling, and high-pressure coolant delivery to control thermal deformation and maintain consistent tool life. For high-precision tooth profiles requiring secondary rolling, gear shaping, or grinding, FlexiTurn confirms process capability against your specific tooth geometry and tolerance requirements before quotation.
