Titanium and alloys on its base are unique structural materials which allow a significant improvement of new equipment performance. Due to high specific strength at preservation of sufficient ductility and considerable corrosion resistance, they have become widely applied in rocket and aircraft construction, power and chemical engineering, ship-building and production of medical equipment, sports and consumer goods.
State Enterprise «Scientific & Production Centre «Titan» of the E.O. Paton Electric Welding Institute of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine® (SE «SPC «Titan» of the E.O. Paton Electric Welding Institute of the NAS of Ukraine®) was established in 1996, by the decision of academician Boris Evgenyevich Paton, Director of the E.O. Paton Electric Welding Institute of the NAS of Ukraine, for pilot production trials of technologies and equipment in the field of electron beam melting of metals and alloys and their further introduction in enterprises of Ukraine, as well as with the purpose of intensification of research and development work in the field of titanium metallurgy under self-financing terms.
At present, industrial production of titanium alloy ingots by the method of electron beam cold-hearth melting (EBM) is organized in the facility of SE «SPC «Titan» of the E.O. Paton Electric Welding Institute of the NAS of Ukraine® in equipment of 3000 tons total annual capacity. Company specialists continue working to create new titanium-based alloys, develop and manufacture locally-produced equipment and technology of melting ingots based on titanium and other metals by EBM method.
Established cooperative relationships with the specialized enterprises of Ukraine allow producing semi-finished products of various sizes from titanium and alloys on its base (forgings, rods, pipes) from the ingots of SE «SPC «Titan» of the E.O. Paton Electric Welding Institute of the NAS of Ukraine® both for the needs of the industry of Ukraine, and for export.
