CNC EDM Drilling Titanium

CNC EDM Drilling Titanium from VT machining delivers precision Titanium parts produced to your exact drawing. Fast-hole EDM drilling produces small, deep holes in hard metals, including starter holes for wire EDM, and we tune every parameter to the behaviour of Titanium, which is high strength-to-weight, biocompatible, corrosion resistant.

CNC EDM Drilling Capability for Titanium

  • Ø0.2–3 mm holes
  • Deep aspect ratios
  • Hardened-metal drilling
  • Angled hole capability

How CNC EDM Drilling Titanium Works

Material is removed from the Titanium workpiece by controlled electrical discharges across a dielectric gap, with no mechanical contact. Flushing, on/off pulse timing and electrode/wire feed are set to balance speed against surface finish.

We start from your supplied geometry and tolerance scheme. The setup is designed to minimise re-clamping, which protects positional accuracy across features. A first article is verified against the drawing before the balance of the batch is released.

Working with Titanium

Titanium is high strength-to-weight, biocompatible, corrosion resistant. We translate those properties into a process plan: the right tooling, speeds, feeds and fixturing for the alloy.

Where the grade, temper or heat-treat condition matters to performance, we confirm it with you and can supply material certificates. Material is procured to recognised standards for consistent, repeatable results.

CNC EDM Drilling Quality & Inspection

Quality is built in, not inspected on. We monitor key features during the run and confirm them at final inspection, with CMM verification available for tight tolerances. We provide the inspection and traceability records your quality system requires.

Design Tips for CNC EDM Drilling Titanium

Small design adjustments often cut cost and lead time. EDM suits sharp internal corners, thin ribs and hardened Titanium that cannot be milled; allowing a small corner radius where possible speeds the cut. If you send your model early, we will return practical DFM feedback before you commit to production.

CNC EDM Drilling Tolerances & Surface Finish

EDM holds tolerances to roughly ±0.002–0.005 mm with no cutting force on the Titanium part, producing fine, controlled surface textures and sharp internal corners impossible to mill.

The tightest tolerances are reserved for the features your drawing flags as critical. Share your tolerance scheme and we will confirm what is realistic before quoting.

Secondary Operations & Finishing

Most Titanium parts need some finishing, which we manage in-house or through vetted partners. Options include deburring and edge-breaking, heat treatment, surface grinding, polishing, and plating or anodising for corrosion resistance and appearance. Give us the finished-part requirement and we will sequence every operation correctly.

Applications of CNC EDM Drilling Titanium

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you EDM-machine hardened Titanium?

Yes. EDM removes material by electrical discharge rather than cutting force, so hardened and difficult Titanium can be machined to fine detail and tight tolerance without distortion.

What is the typical lead time and minimum order for CNC EDM Drilling Titanium?

CNC EDM Drilling prototypes for Titanium can be produced quickly and scaled to series production. Send your drawing and quantity and we will advise lead time and any minimum order.

Which industries use CNC EDM Drilling Titanium parts?

CNC EDM Drilling Titanium parts are used across aerospace, medical, automotive, electronics, semiconductor and general industrial sectors — anywhere precise Titanium components are required.

What tolerances can you hold for CNC EDM Drilling Titanium?

Achievable tolerances for Titanium EDM machining depend on the alloy, geometry and feature size. EDM holds tolerances to around ±0.002 mm with no cutting force on the part. Exact figures are confirmed against your drawing callouts.
