Topic 04
In this topic, thermomechanical processing of titanium-based materials is addressed. After ingot or semi-finished part production, thermomechanical processes are typically applied to adjust the dimensions, the microstructure and properties of the resulting semi-finished products. Improvements in well-established processes as well as latest developments in thermomechanical processing in laboratory and industry scale are discussed in this topic.
