A method for forming large titanium parts includes forming bends into a titanium plate for form a bent part. The bent part is then roll-formed to form contours into the bent part. The surfaces of the contoured part are rough-machined, and the part is then secured to a bladed form fixture. The bladed form fixture comprises a plurality of header boards that secure the part to the fixture. The fixture part is placed in a thermal vacuum furnace and a stress-relieving operation is performed. The part is removed from the fixture and final machining takes place.

A method for refining a titanium material, in which oxygen contained in a titanium material made of a pure titanium, a titanium alloy or an intermetallic compound containing titanium as one of main components is removed, the method includes: a first melting step of melting the titanium material under a noble gas atmosphere containing 5 to 70 vol % of hydrogen, thereby introducing hydrogen into a melt of the titanium material; and a second melting step of melting the titanium material into which hydrogen has been introduced in the first melting step under a noble gas atmosphere, thereby removing oxygen contained in the titanium material from the melt of the titanium material together with the hydrogen. Each of the first melting step and the second melting step is carried out at least once.

Method and means for suppressing discoloration during thermal treatment of a product of a magnesium containing aluminium alloy, the alloy contains in wt. % Mg: 0.45-12.0, with a preferred range of 0.45-6.0 wt %. The product, being either an extrusion billet, a sheet ingot, a cast product, or a forged product is heated to a temperature T where it is prone to surface discoloration and oxidation, wherein during the thermal treatment it is exposed to a suppressing atmosphere comprising 0.5-5.0% CO.sub.2 gas with a preference for 0.5-1.5% CO.sub.2 gas.

A method for heat treating a superalloy component includes heating a superalloy component to a first temperature, cooling the superalloy from the first temperature to a second temperature at a first cooling rate in a furnace, and cooling the superalloy component from the second temperature to a final temperature at a second cooling rate. The second cooling rate is higher than the first cooling rate.
