Precision Machining Complex Rocket Part out of Titanium

[@Sara-TOC]

It's always nice seeing Titan at the controls. He has a remarkable talent for storytelling through machining. I can't wait to see the inspection and second operation!

[@TheNicko773]

Titan is a national treasure. Gives back to the community with his high level of expertise and knowledge of his trade. Thank you.

[@RainbowGin]

I'm not a machinest but I do want to be an engineer one-day. Would you consider doing a video on how us engineers can make life better for our machinist

[@awesomefirebird69]

As a draft checker/drawing reviewer that also have experience as a machinist I would say learn your GD&T well. Tolerance the important functional feature of your part, not features that mate to air. Take into consideration how the part will be manufactured and inspected. When you have the opportunity ask to join the procurement guys next time they’re visiting a supplier/workshop. If you have a prototype department, ask them how your drawings could improve. Most of the time they’ll make the part good enough or better than what the drawing said because they know what it’s for/can adapt adjacent parts in the assembly to fit. That’s nice and all, but the feedback they could have provided you with is lost. But when it’s time for mass production you may have 5 different suppliers for all the parts in the assembly, maybe even the same part from different suppliers. Then your drawings have to be as close to perfect as can be. That’s where their feedback early on in the prototype stage could be invaluable.

[@followingflinn8311]

As a programmer/toolmaker, I suggest doing as much machining as you can in any environment to learn about capabilities of different machines, metallurgy, finishes, speeds and feeds, etc. It will help you greatly in designing components or processes.

[@PeterRakowski]

100 percent need a machining background/ knowledge, to be a top engineer of course

[@frontierfishingwithryanmac1981]

My tip would be to become a machinist first and then get into engineering! Machinists were made so Engineers can have heros too!

[@Snapcracklepop541]

Engineer here. If you want to be an engineer, go right into engineering. It’s extremely difficult and you need to get through that as soon as you graduate high school. You can do it at anytime but it’s so freaking challenging, it’s a lot better to hit the ground running early.

[@RainbowGin]

I really enjoyed this more in-depth video!

Love to see Titan back in more videos, especially machining tutorials. I like the new style of long uncut machining footage with you at the machine.

[@TITANSofCNC]

Thanks Brother! Filming the other side right now

[@Nuuks67]

Love it... one thing you can also do is on the go no-go gages is on the GO gage where the set screws are hidden with red filler, use green... Green means go.. red means no go so people can physically see them. Sometimes that lettering on those gages get hard to read in bad light, or bad age lol. Just something we did when I was machining.

[@OstravskeJelito]

that happines on Titans face at the end is just the true meaning of what it is to be a machinist

[@shaniegust1225]

Chips of GREATNESS!

[@ProjectShopFl]

I finally got to make my first chip's on my manual mill. It was only cast iron but now I have chip fever. lol Someone gave me some titanium round stock I'm hoping to find a project for. One day I hope to make big chips like you Barry. Keep up the awesome work you guys are a huge inspiration to me.

[@prodesign8189]

Thanks for the great stuff to watch while I am running my machines. God bless you and yours!

Titan I really enjoy watching your videos on my lunch break. It makes me want to get back onto the floor and out of inspection and make parts again. Lol

[@greg2337]

It would be great to see the data for ramping into the o ring grooves. Ramp angle, lead in/out etc. More vids like this!!

[@vindice5849]

I want to learn to be a machinist so bad, I used to watch them so closely its such an amazing path

[@SuperstarComponentsLTD]

Nice to see a video where you can hear what a nice cut sounds like. That noise will probably save a thousand endmills on people guessing and hoping they got the data right. ❤

[@dwertkwert4948]

Sorry bra, but with experience you defenitely know at least how a good cut sounds. Doesnt really matter what kind of material it is. And yes i said good cut... a perfect cut is something else and needs especially with materials as Titanium much more experience. But if you hear a bad sound you will not go on with the cutting , you will stop it and change the parameters.

[@SuperstarComponentsLTD]

[@bf4chode2]

Nice to see you guys using the TE as intended for once even though it was just for the o-ring

[@TITANSofCNC]

I also used it for the bottom pockets and explained how I ramped in at 10 degrees.

[@bf4chode2]

Sorry I did miss that. You guys turned me on to the TE and when I found out that’s the tooling we were using for our vises in my apprenticeship, I took full advantage of what it can do to mill our pockets. 4140 steel, 3/8 end mill, full radial and 2xD. My program took just under 3 minutes and the guy I’m competing with as well as the teachers program were 48 min and 47 respectively. Blew their socks off

True, but it will still be held to parameters set forth by an inventor… and if that inventor isn’t the best machinist in the world… The Ai will always have someone better out there. Not faster, but yes… better

[@brex6095]

If you're drilling counterbored holes, what is the benefit of cutting the through hole with a larger dia drill bit and then using a smaller dia drill bit to cut the counterbore? Couldn't you just use the larger bit to cut the counterbore in the same operation to save time?

[@RealNotallGaming]

[@---MarcosVanzuita---]

Sensacional! 👍👏🇧🇷

[@ciscohernandez4384]

Great video. Question on the inspection. Is there enough distortion on the part once the second machining OP is completed? If so, do have to reinspect all features inspected from OP 1?

[@TITANSofCNC]

Yep, you have to check op one and then recheck op one as a finished part… once the second op is done. You also have to be strategic in how you proceed. Meaning… If I know that the part is going to bow by .003 after the second op is done… and I have .005 for a total tolerance. I would make sure to keep the first side to .001 or less For a total of .004 Make sense?

[@soullover9920]

Wow, I want to hear how you went from having it rough out of prison to learning this trade!! I’m looking to get into this trade, any advice. Do I call every shop and ask if they will teach me??? Idk I personally just got back from failing bootcamp with the coast guard and now I want to do this.

[@nonamenoface8828]

Well done,Titan. It's a single part or a little number of pieces? Maybe a prototype?

[@TITANSofCNC]

It’s a prototype that I am doing just to teach on KZbin. Thanks

[@hookedup9424]

What happens if on a piece like this one of the threads is bad. Any way to save the piece

[@TITANSofCNC]

Only way is to call the customer and ask for approval to place a thread insert into the thread

[@pylodj7]

Everything is very beautiful, but the detail is that they do not specify the process, titanium is easy with the appropriate parameters, not only because it is that metal, it is already high-end, the machines behave differently in other steels, greetings my humble opinion

you guys should start modeling your toolholders. haha. Every single shot I have seen of verify has the default holder.

[@TITANSofCNC]

We actually have a ton modeled but I don’t program as much these days… so I just speed through and spend the least amount of time in Cam as possible

Do you use presetter to measure your tooling or machine supplied tool measurer ? And do you sum up the tool lengths to one tool to alleviate mismatch?

How do you decide with Tool holder you use for what (shrink, collet Chuck…)

[@mikeygoertzy4524]

They make different ones for different applications like if you need to reach five inches down on a part from a five axis tilting 45 degrees it’s gotta be a long tool. It’s just what you need it for. But collets are relatively reliable

[@TITANSofCNC]

Dude, you always have to 100% check threads on a part of this magnitude. I was just saying that if I am doing a thread with a major dia of .3125… and I know from experience that is I program it to that dia… the thread gage won’t go in… Then I will remember from past experiences that I had to comp the thread mill -.006 So, I will now, just automatically program it larger by .006 Which will give me a perfect thread the first time out.. Of course the thread mill can break down and create a bad thread. Not sure why I wasted my time on your comment but ya… easy stuff. No sense reinvent the wheel. Titan

Because there are camera cuts, it's an opportunity to call "bullshit".
