A line of small-diameter titanium machining bar offers improved quality, higher productivity and cost savings to manufacturers making small, intricate, precision parts on Swiss-type automatic screw machines.

The Dynamet titanium Ultrabar can be considered for posts, abutments and healing caps in dental implants, as well as parts in other industries requiring similarly stringent dimensional tolerances. The titanium bar is said to offer tighter dimensional tolerances, along with roundness, straightness and finish requirements while maintaining an unprecedented level of consistency from bar end to bar end and lot to lot.

The customer manufactured Ultrabar works well with automatic bar feeders and moves efficiently through guide bushings so it can be run at higher speeds and feeds, optimizing production, which may yield productivity improvements.
