VT machining offers CNC Swiss Machining for Grade 1 Titanium (UNS R50250 / ASTM B348 Gr1), typically supplied annealed. Softest, most formable CP titanium.
CNC Swiss Machining Notes for Grade 1 Titanium
Grade 1 Titanium can be Swiss-turned, but slower cutting data and guide-bushing clearances are set for this grade to protect slender features.
For estimating, a 100 × 100 × 10 mm block of Grade 1 Titanium weighs about 0.45 kg.
Starting Parameters for CNC Swiss Machining Grade 1 Titanium

What material thickness or size range suits CNC Swiss Machining Grade 1 Titanium?
Turned Grade 1 Titanium parts are produced from bar or chuck stock across a wide diameter range.
Why is Grade 1 Titanium a good choice for CNC Swiss Machining?
Grade 1 Titanium is high strength-to-weight, biocompatible and corrosion resistant, which makes it well suited to CNC Swiss Machining. We tune the process to the alloy so the finished Grade 1 Titanium turning part meets your dimensional and functional requirements.
Can VT machining make custom Grade 1 Titanium parts to my drawing?
Yes. Grade 1 Titanium turning 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.
What tolerances can you hold for CNC Swiss Machining Grade 1 Titanium?
Achievable tolerances for Grade 1 Titanium turning depend on the alloy, geometry and feature size. Turning holds diameter tolerances to around ±0.005 mm with concentricity within 0.01 mm. Exact figures are confirmed against your drawing callouts.
