VT machining offers CNC Laser Cutting for Grade 23 Titanium (UNS R56401 / Ti-6Al-4V ELI), typically supplied annealed. Extra-low-interstitial Gr5 with better fracture toughness, for implants.
CNC Laser Cutting Notes for Grade 23 Titanium
Fibre-laser cutting of Grade 23 Titanium sheet gives a narrow kerf with minimal burr.
For estimating, a 100 × 100 × 10 mm block of Grade 23 Titanium weighs about 0.44 kg.

What surface finish is achievable on Grade 23 Titanium with CNC Laser Cutting?
Laser cutting leaves a clean cut face on Grade 23 Titanium with a small heat-affected zone; most parts need little secondary finishing.
What is CNC Laser Cutting Grade 23 Titanium and how is it done?
CNC Laser Cutting Grade 23 Titanium refers to cNC fiber laser cutting follows a programmed path to cut sheet and plate with a clean, narrow kerf. Applied to Grade 23 Titanium — high strength-to-weight, biocompatible and corrosion resistant — VT machining produces each part to your CAD drawing, selecting parameters from your tolerance, finish and quantity requirements.
Why is Grade 23 Titanium a good choice for CNC Laser Cutting?
Grade 23 Titanium is high strength-to-weight, biocompatible and corrosion resistant, which makes it well suited to CNC Laser Cutting. We tune the process to the alloy so the finished Grade 23 Titanium cutting part meets your dimensional and functional requirements.
Can VT machining make custom Grade 23 Titanium parts to my drawing?
Yes. Grade 23 Titanium cutting is made to order from your CAD/2D drawing. Share your geometry, material grade, tolerance and quantity and we will confirm feasibility, lead time and pricing.
How clean are the edges produced by CNC Laser Cutting on Grade 23 Titanium?
Laser cutting leaves Grade 23 Titanium with a narrow kerf and a clean, near burr-free edge and only a small heat-affected zone.
