Aerospace Component: Door Latch

WIDIA™ offers machining strategies and innovative tooling technology specifically engineered for the aerospace industry to increase productivity and reduce cost.

Machining Processes:

Twelve tools were used to machine the Titanium (TI6Al4V) door latch component on a DMG 65U 5-Axes machine. After implementing the machining strategy and tooling selection the overall machining time was reduced by over 1.5hr from its original machining time. 

Total Machining Time: 54 Minutes
