Maybe, but what major industry actually does that? I worked in medical devices with titanium and it was never even considered...

It depends on the customer. Medical devices aren't holding up anything heavier than a single person at most.

Every shop I've worked in that made stuff for various industries tracked heat numbers for materials that we used. Some customers didn't care, some customers wanted heat numbers, material test reports, and everything they would need to track a piece of material all the way back to the mill that made it.
