Titanium Glasses: Definition & Frame Cost

Titanium glasses frames are classified into the following 3 types according to the material:

• Pure Titanium Eyeglasses frames refer to glasses frames made of titanium metal materials with a titanium purity of more than 99%. Except for small accessories such as screws and plastic foot covers, the metal parts are all made of pure titanium.

• Titanium Optical Frame, titanium components account for about 75% and are mixed with other rare metals to form a special alloy.

• Titanium alloy frames, usually refer to 50% titanium and 50% tin and other metals.

Titanium glasses frames are ultra-lightweight, hard, corrosion-resistant, rust-free, non-allergenic, and relatively durable. In addition, pure titanium has special current characteristics, which can guide electron fluctuations to generate ions, making the current tend to ionize, and can quickly adjust the adverse effects caused by electromagnetic waves causing chaos in the body's bioelectric current, and have a beneficial physiological effect on the human body.

Titanium glasses frames occupy an important position in the glasses market with their unique advantages, but their manufacturing costs are also relatively high.

First of all, material cost is an important aspect. As a rare metal, titanium is not cheap in itself. High-quality pure titanium or titanium alloy materials ensure the strength, lightness and corrosion resistance of the eyeglass frames, but also make the raw material procurement cost higher.

In terms of processing costs, the manufacturing process of titanium eyeglass frames is complicated. Titanium has a high melting point and strict requirements on processing equipment and technology. For example, welding usually needs to be carried out in a vacuum, which increases equipment investment and energy consumption. At the same time, in order to ensure the accuracy and quality of the eyeglass frames, high-precision molds and advanced processing technologies are required, which increase the processing costs.

Labor costs cannot be ignored either. The manufacture of titanium eyeglass frames requires skilled technical workers who have professional knowledge and skills to operate complex equipment and perform fine processing. Moreover, due to the relatively low production efficiency of titanium eyeglass frames, the labor cost per unit product is also increased accordingly.

In addition, there are quality inspection costs. In order to ensure that each pair of titanium eyeglass frames meets quality standards, strict testing is required, which also increases costs. Finally, packaging and transportation costs also have a certain impact on the total cost, because titanium eyeglass frames require high-quality packaging materials to protect them from damage during transportation.

In summary, the manufacturing cost of titanium eyeglass frames is relatively high, which is why they are relatively expensive. However, their excellent performance and fashionable appearance still attract the favor of many consumers.
