TITANIUM, with its extraordinary combination of great strength and light weight, is an "alloy of the future" and an important part of APPÕs business today. APP has been producing titanium forgings since 1975 primarily for the aerospace market. We forge a variety of alloys, including Ti 10V-2Fe-3Al, Ti 6Al-4V and others, in sizes up to 150 square inches Plan View Area (PVA). Our design and production technologies allow us to produce both precision iso-thermally forged parts, as well as conventional lower temperature forgings.

ISO-THERMAL TITANIUM Forgings

When the temperatures of both the forging dies and the beginning raw material are elevated to the same very high levels, we call this condition "Iso-Thermal." This iso-thermal condition, with close tolerance superalloy tooling, special lubricants, and closely controlled forging speeds and pressures, combine to produce net and near-net configurations that require little or no machining. APP has three decades of iso-thermal forging experience.

CONVENTIONAL TITANIUM Forgings

In addition to iso-thermal precision forgings, APP produces conventional titanium forgings. These forgings are usually produced at lower die temperatures with less costly and less complex conventional tooling. The production rates of conventional titanium forgings is typically much higher than for iso-thermal forgings, resulting in a less costly part with shorter lead times.

About Aluminum Precision Products (APP):

Aluminum Precision Products (APP) has established itself as an international leader in closed and open die forgings of aluminum and titanium alloys. With capabilities that extend from initial design to final assembly, APP is an important presence in the world markets for wrought non-ferrous products.

APP is composed of two major Divisions in 7 locations and employs more than 1,000 people. The two divisions are APP Forge and Catalina Cylinders.

APP is a Fully-Integrated Manufacturing Operation.

  • We produce aluminum and titanium conventional and precision forgings, assemblies and open-die (hand) forgings.
  • We are committed to steady, long-term improvement of all our products and processes through defect prevention rather than detection.
  • Our goal is to be the world class quality supplier of choice in the forging industry.
