Why work with us
Difficult alloy specialists
We specialize in difficult alloys. Grade 2 titanium's low thermal conductivity, tendency to gall and risk of built-up edge are process challenges we manage every day.
Engineering support
We support engineering, procurement and quality teams with manufacturability feedback, stable machining routes and inspection evidence.
Export-ready delivery
We deliver export-ready parts with traceable materials, first article inspection and dimensional reports when required.
AXALLOY Precision is a Shenzhen-based CNC machining partner serving OEMs, Tier 1/Tier 2 suppliers and product-development firms across North America, Europe, the UK, Australia, New Zealand and advanced Asian manufacturing markets.

Our machining approach to Grade 2 titanium
Process definition
We evaluate material behavior, geometry, tolerances, surfaces, inspection strategy and volume before locking the machining route.
Tooling and cutting strategy
Sharp, positive-rake tooling, controlled cutting speeds and stable tool paths to limit heat, avoid dwell and mitigate galling/built-up edge.
Chip control and stability
Fixture planning and feature sequencing to maintain rigidity on thin walls and small diameters.
Secondary operations
Precision grinding for sealing/bearing fits, EDM for sharp internal features, and finishing steps including cleaning, marking and assembly support.
Risk reduction
Mill-turn configurations reduce setups and strengthen feature relationships; in-process inspection stabilizes critical dimensions.
