Robotic Automation: Electron Beam Welding

Electron beam welding (EBW) is a fusion joining process that produces a weld by impinging a beam of high energy electrons to heat the weld joint. An electron beam welding gun uses a high intensity electron beam to target a weld joint. The weld joint converts the electron beam to the heat input required to make a fusion weld.

The Benefits of Electron Beam Welding:

  • Low Contamination Vacuum
  • Narrow Weld Zone
  • Low Distortion Level

The electron beam is always generated in a high vacuum. The use of specially designed orifices separated a series of chambers at various levels of vacuum permits welding in medium and non vacuum conditions. Although, high vacuum welding will provide maximum purity and high depth to width ratio welds.
