CSIRO is spearheading initiatives to facilitate development of an Australian titanium manufacturing industry.
These initiatives include projects focused on state-of-the-art fabrication technologies including additive manufacturing and titanium machining.
Read about our initiatives in titanium metal manufacturing below.
ArcamCSIRO has recently established an Arcam additive manufacturing facility, the first in the southern hemisphere, to provide industry with access to advanced electron beam melting technologies for three-dimensional (3D) printing of metals.
Thermally Assisted MachiningCSIRO has developed an improved machining process for titanium metal and its alloys by using a localised high energy heat source, such as a laser beam, in conjunction with cutting tools.
Cold spray technologyCold gas-dynamic spray technology, or Cold Spray technology, is a rapidly emerging industrial coatings technology.
