Machining titanium leaves no room for error — especially when your design includes ultra-thin walls and complex geometry. In this video, Mastercam partners with guitar maker Dean Zelinsky to create a titanium version of one of his iconic guitars. With walls under 1mm thick and a notoriously difficult material, precision is critical. To ensure every part comes off the machine perfectly — in a single setup — the team used Vericut G-code simulation and Force Optimization. What you’ll see in this video: - How titanium guitar components are programmed and machined - The challenges of machining thin-wall titanium parts - How Mastercam integrates seamlessly with Vericut - How simulation prevents crashes and eliminates guesswork - How Force Optimization improves feeds, speeds, and tool life Why it matters:Using Mastercam + Vericut allows the team to: - Optimize G-code for safer, more efficient machining - Reduce cycle times and meet tight deadlines - Extend tool life and improve surface finish - Run confidently in “lights-out” production - Deliver high-quality parts at competitive cost If you're machining titanium or complex parts, this workflow shows how simulation and optimization can transform your process. 👉 Learn more: https://vericut.com/ #Machining #Titanium #CNC #Mastercam #Vericut #Manufacturing #GCode #CNCProgramming #Engineering #GuitarMaking
