Electron Beam Welding
Electron beam welding is the process that started it all for Joining Technologies.
Performed in a vacuum, electron beam welding is a great choice for welding refractory materials, dissimilar metals, and reflective metals.

BENEFITS
- Deep Penetration - EBW can achieve deep weld penetration, making it suitable for joining thick materials with a high aspect ratio. This is particularly useful in aerospace and automotive applications.
- Narrow Heat-Affected Zone (HAZ) - EBW produces a very narrow HAZ, minimizing distortion and reducing the risk of metallurgical changes.
- Low Thermal Distortion - The minimal heat input and narrow HAZ result in low thermal distortion, ensuring that the workpiece remains flat and true, making this an excellent choice for precision machining and tooling applications.
- High Welding Speed - Advantageous in high-volume production environments where efficiency is essential.
- Versatility - Can be applied to a wide range of materials, including metals and dissimilar materials, making it useful for many industries from aerospace to nuclear power generation.
- Low Contamination - Due to the process being performed in a vacuum, there is a reduced risk of contamination from atmospheric gases.
