Titanium alloy machining difficulties

According to rare metals supplier Firmetal, titanium alloy material is difficult to machine due to its high strength, hardness, processing required to produce surface hardening layer, low material coefficient of thermal conductivity, small modulus of elasticity, the spring back amount of the cutting machining surface is large, the friction of the cutter knife, adhesive, and adhesive wear.
