Start with the exact titanium alloy
Titanium CNC machining requirements depend on the specified alloy and part geometry. Identify the grade, material condition and any customer-approved substitution rules. Do not use 'titanium' as a complete material specification when the drawing calls for a particular grade or documentation.
Show interfaces and critical features
Provide the current CAD model and drawing revision. Mark datums, mating surfaces, holes, threads and dimensions that control fit. State the required surface finish, deburring, coating and inspection evidence. If the component is for aerospace, medical or another regulated application, provide the governing customer requirements and do not assume machining alone grants qualification.
Make the RFQ comparable
Include quantity, prototype or production intent, packaging and destination. List secondary operations and quote exclusions. Confirm the acceptance method for critical features and request review of any unusual geometry before selecting the process route.
For material-specific information, see titanium material. For general part production, see CNC machining services.
Titanium RFQ checklist
- Exact alloy and material condition
- Drawing and model revision
- Critical interfaces, datums and tolerances
- Finish, inspection and documentation needs
- Quantity, secondary operations and packaging
Confirm material identity, feasibility and acceptance against the actual drawing before release.
