PROCUREMENT GUIDE

Titanium Diaphragm Buying Essentials

Start with the product level and application, then define titanium grade, thickness, formed geometry, interface, tooling and inspection requirements before prototype or production review.

Component Geometry Does Not Define Complete Driver Performance

Frequency response, resonance, distortion, sensitivity and power handling depend on the complete diaphragm assembly, voice coil, magnetic system, phase plug, horn and test conditions—not the titanium dome alone.

Product Level & Application

Confirm exactly what component is required before defining dimensions or performance requirements.

Audio Options: Foil Blank · Formed Dome · Bare Diaphragm · Diaphragm Assembly

Application: Tweeter · Compression Driver · Other Audio OEM

Titanium Grade & Thickness

Grade, material condition and thickness are reviewed together with the forming profile and customer drawing.

Review: Grade · Material Specification · Condition · Thickness · MTC

Material Input: Foil / Strip · Heat / Lot Traceability

Dome Geometry & Interface

Define the diaphragm profile and all assembly interfaces so the formed component can be reviewed against the customer drawing or approved sample.

Geometry: OD · Dome Height · Profile · Ribs / Corrugation · Edge

Interface: Voice-Coil Diameter · Annulus / Surround · Former Interface · Tabs / Holes

Tooling, Sample & Inspection

New and repeat OEM projects are reviewed against the drawing, approved sample, tooling requirements and agreed dimensional inspection plan.

Development: Drawing · Sample · Tooling · Prototype · Golden Sample

Inspection: Thickness · Profile · OD · Edge · Surface · Lot Traceability

Designed for: audio OEM components, tweeter domes, speaker diaphragms, acoustic devices, industrial sensors, precision instruments, and batch production projects.

Raw-Material Specification Is Not Finished-Diaphragm Performance: ASTM B265 may apply to titanium sheet or strip used as starting material, but finished diaphragm geometry, dimensional acceptance and functional performance are controlled by the drawing, approved sample, inspection plan and assembly-level validation where applicable.

Material Grade Does Not Define System Performance: Titanium grade alone does not determine frequency response, resonance, sensor accuracy, pressure response or cycle life. These depend on geometry, thickness, joining, assembly design and test conditions.

Review Material & Thickness.

Selection Guide

How to Choose the Right Titanium Diaphragms

Titanium diaphragm selection depends on application type, titanium grade, thickness, forming profile, stiffness, surface condition, dimensional tolerance and documentation requirements. For audio OEMs and sensor manufacturers, small changes in thickness, dome geometry or surface condition can affect acoustic response, sensitivity, consistency and assembly performance.

1

Confirm Application Type

Choose titanium diaphragms according to the final use, such as tweeter domes, speaker diaphragms, headphone diaphragms, industrial sensor diaphragms or custom OEM diaphragm components.

2

Define Thickness, Diameter and Forming Profile

Confirm diaphragm diameter, material thickness, dome height, forming depth, corrugation profile, edge shape and drawing tolerance according to acoustic response, sensor sensitivity or assembly requirements.

3

Match Titanium Grade to Performance Needs

Review Grade 1, Grade 2, Grade 5 or other titanium grades according to formability, stiffness, lightweight performance, acoustic behavior, corrosion environment and application requirements.

4

Confirm Surface, Inspection and Documentation

Confirm surface finish, cleanliness, edge condition, dimensional inspection, thickness inspection, forming profile review, MTC, heat number traceability and export documents according to project requirements.

Need help choosing the right titanium diaphragm for your project?

Selection Note: Final titanium diaphragm selection should be reviewed according to application type, titanium grade, thickness, diameter, forming depth, dome geometry, stiffness, surface condition, edge quality, inspection level and documentation needs.

Optical and dimensional inspection of titanium diaphragms

Component Inspection Is Different from Assembly Performance Testing

Dimensional and visual conformity of a titanium diaphragm does not by itself establish frequency response, resonance, distortion, sensor accuracy, pressure response or cycle life. Functional validation depends on the supplied product level, assembly, fixture and agreed test method.

*Documentation and functional test scope are supplied according to confirmed project requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

Titanium Diaphragm FAQs

Answers to common OEM questions about titanium diaphragm types, materials, geometry, tooling, testing and quotation requirements.

Product & Materials

What type of titanium diaphragm does HELE supply?
HELE supplies custom titanium diaphragm components manufactured to drawing or approved sample, including flat blanks, formed domes, bare diaphragms and drawing-based formed components according to the confirmed project scope. A bare diaphragm, diaphragm assembly and complete tweeter, driver or sensor are different supply levels and should be specified separately.
What is the difference between an audio and an industrial titanium diaphragm?
Audio diaphragms are primarily defined by dome or formed profile, annulus, edge geometry and voice-coil or assembly interface. Industrial diaphragms require a different review of active diameter, corrugation, edge restraint or joining, operating medium, temperature and test responsibility.
Which titanium grade should I use for a diaphragm?
The grade should be selected together with thickness, material condition, formed profile, tooling and end-use requirements. Grade 1 and Grade 2 may be reviewed for commercially pure titanium diaphragm applications, while Grade 5 requires project-specific review for the actual geometry and forming route.
How should diaphragm thickness and profile be specified?
Thickness should be specified together with the complete formed geometry, including outside diameter, dome or profile height, ribs or corrugations, edge geometry and assembly interface. Audio and industrial parts require different geometry inputs.

Tooling & Quotation

What is the difference between a titanium dome and a diaphragm assembly?
A titanium dome or bare diaphragm is the formed metal component itself. A diaphragm assembly may also include a surround, annulus, former, voice coil, adhesive or other interfaces depending on the design. Complete tweeter or compression-driver performance cannot be assigned to the bare titanium dome alone.
Can HELE develop tooling and prototypes for a custom diaphragm?
Custom diaphragm projects can be reviewed from customer drawings or approved samples for tooling, forming, prototype production and sample approval before batch manufacturing. Tooling scope, prototype quantity and production requirements are confirmed during quotation.
Can a titanium diaphragm be tested for acoustic or pressure performance?
Component-level dimensions, thickness, profile and surface characteristics can be inspected directly. Acoustic or pressure-system performance requires a defined assembly, fixture, test method, sample plan and acceptance criteria.
What information should I provide for a titanium diaphragm quotation?
Provide the application, required product level, drawing or sample, titanium grade, material condition, thickness, geometry, quantity and inspection scope. Also include assembly-interface details, drawing revision, destination, required date and documentation requirements where applicable.
