How to avoid work hardening and built-up edge in titanium drilling

Titanium drilling is plagued by work hardening and built-up edge (BUE), caused by extreme heat generation. This rapidly dulls drills, leading to frequent machine downtime, tool failure, extended cycle times, and poor hole quality. The material's low thermal conductivity traps heat, exacerbating the problem and demanding specialized strategies to avoid costly operational failures.
