Recently, Hunan Xiangtou Jintian Titanium Metal Co., Ltd.(hereinafter referred to as "Xiangtou Jintian Titanium") has made major breakthroughs in the shape and surface quality control technology of titanium and titanium alloy wide and heavy plates, achieving mass production of 3000mm ultra-wide titanium alloy plates such as 25×3300×10000mm, becoming one of the few suppliers in the world that can provide 3000mm titanium and titanium alloy plates.
After nearly a year of continuous research, the Xiangtou Jintian Titanium Project team has overcome a series of process technical problems such as poor shape, surface cracking, and poor uniformity of microstructure and properties of titanium and titanium alloy wide and heavy plates. This batch production of 3000 mm. The ultra-wide titanium alloy plate has a straight shape, a good surface, and a uniform organization. At present, the company can prepare high-quality titanium and titanium alloy wide and thick plates with a thickness of 10-85mm, a width of 2,000 - 3,300 mm, and a length of 8,000 - 15,000 mm, covering common grades such as TA2, TA15, TA17, TC4, and Ti80. As a key material, the product has wide application prospects in key fields such as aviation, aerospace, and marine equipment.
The use of ultra-wide titanium alloy plates in the field of high-end equipment manufacturing can effectively reduce welds and improve equipment reliability and stability. It is of great significance to China's exploration of strategic areas such as deep sea and deep space. In recent years, Xiangtou Jintian Titanium has targeted the country's major strategic needs, deepened the "titanium-steel alliance" model, and carried out in-depth cooperation with its brother company Xiangtan Iron and Steel Group Co., Ltd. in the field of ultra-wide titanium alloy plate preparation, and jointly undertook the technical research of our province. The "Unveiling the List and Leading the Leadership" project "Research on the Preparation Technology of High-Performance Ultra-Wide Titanium Alloy Thick Plates for Ocean Engineering" helps the development and manufacturing of "important weapons of great powers" in the deep sea. Based on the equipment and technical advantages of both parties, it is possible to form titanium alloy wide and thick plates with large reduction in one heat, eliminating cumbersome processes such as intermediate blanking and surface grinding, and greatly shortening the production cycle while improving the yield, forming a unique core advantage for the company.
Focus on scientific and technological innovation to serve the "important weapon of the country". In the future, Xiangtou Jintian Group will continue to actively work in tackling "stuck necks" problems and research and development of key materials, integrate advantageous resources, highlight technological innovation, strive to improve the reliability and safety of the industrial chain, supply chain and innovation chain, and accelerate the creation of the "source" of original technology in Hunan's titanium materials industry.
