Titanium Alloy Optical Frames

Titanium Alloy Optical Frames are precision-manufactured ophthalmic structures engineered for B2B optical brand owners, private-label distributors, and regional wholesalers. Fabricated from aerospace-grade and medical-grade titanium raw materials, these frames provide a high strength-to-weight ratio, structural rigidity, and complete biocompatibility.

The production architecture combines multi-axis CNC machining, wire-EDM profiling, and vacuum ion plating (IP) lines to maintain strict dimensional tolerances required for prescription lens insertion and long-term wear stability. Designed for OEM and ODM integration, these frames support global optical portfolios demanding minimal facial load, corrosion resistance, and consistent batch manufacturing.

Low-Mass Structural Profile: Individual frame weights range from 8 grams to 15 grams (excluding lenses), minimizing bridge-load distribution during extended daily wear.

Elasticity and Memory Retention: Beta-titanium temples supply constant, uniform clamping pressure, supporting up to a 180-degree outward flex angle without permanent structural deformation.

Hypoallergenic Material Composition: Nickel-free titanium alloys eliminate skin contact reactions, complying directly with the EU Directive 94/27/EC (Nickel Release Standards).

Environmental Resistance: Unaffected by facial sebum, saline perspiration, and common cosmetic formulations, preventing surface oxidation or green patina formation over time.

Machined Lens Grooves: CNC-cut V-grooves maintain a dimensional tolerance within +/- 0.03 mm, locking bevel-edge lenses securely into position and preventing rotation or displacement under mechanical impact.

Rim Blanking: Rims are precision-milled or wire-EDM cut from solid titanium plates to maintain material fiber orientation and structural continuity.

Welding Integrity: Laser beam welding (LBW) performed under an argon gas shielding environment produces weld seams with a tensile strength exceeding 85% of the parent metal, eliminating bridge joint fractures.

Surface Preparation: Components undergo multi-stage mechanical tumbling and ultrasonic solvent cleaning to eradicate microscopic burrs and oil residue prior to physical vapor deposition.

Rim Architectures: Full-rim, semi-rimless (secured with nylon retention cord), and minimalist rimless silhouette styles.

Geometric Silhouettes: Round, P3, rectangular, aviator, geometric polygon, and custom brand-specific shapes.

Standard A-B-DBL Size Metrics:
48-18-140 mm
50-20-145 mm
52-18-145 mm

Temple Configurations: Straight core-wire acetate tips, curved cable temples, or minimalist all-titanium wire temples with custom laser-etched markers.

Surface Colorways: Matte Gunmetal, Satin Silver, Rose Gold, 18K Yellow Gold IP, Matte Black, and Raw Brushed Titanium.

Prototyping Workflow: Custom physical prototypes machined from customer-supplied CAD files (STEP or IGES format) within 10 to 14 business days.

Private Labeling: Deep laser engraving, chemical acid etching, or color-filled pad stamping applied to temple tips and inner bridge surfaces.

Dimensional Adjustments: Custom temple cross-section thicknesses, proprietary hinge placements, and tailored pantoscopic tilt angles.

Collateral & Packaging: Custom-embossed hard cases, microfiber pouches, branded cleaning cloths, and export cartons featuring barcode and UPC label integration.

Engineering Asset Access: Standard 3D STEP architectural models and optical tolerance drawings are available for immediate download or direct request to streamline your internal optical layout and virtual fitting simulations. [Request Technical CAD Package]

Facility Infrastructure: 45 multi-axis CNC machining centers, 12 laser welding stations, and 4 automated vacuum ion plating chambers operated within a controlled production plant.

Inspection Protocols:
• Dimensional Audit: 100% optical comparator verification checking bridge width, diagonal sizing, and hinge angle alignments.
• Coating Adhesion Verification: Cross-hatch tape adhesion tests combined with 48-hour artificial sweat immersion to confirm surface durability.
• Mechanical Fatigue Testing: Automated cyclic testing exceeding 10,000 open-close hinge operations without tension loss or fastener migration.

Traceability System: Laser-coded production lot numbers stamped on inner temple bars allow complete tracking of raw material melt sheets and processing timestamps.
