Norsk Titanium, headquartered in Hønefoss, Norway, is expanding part production capabilities at its Plattsburgh, New York, USA, facility with the addition of heat treatment, ultrasonic non-destructive testing (NDT), finish machining operations, and coordinate measuring (CMM).

The expanded capabilities will also allow the delivery of limited production rapid prototypes to customers, and is in line with the company’s objective of developing a ‘part-in-a-day’ operation.
