Electron Beam Welding
60kV or 150kV machines
Characteristics of electron beam welds include:
- Deep penetration
- Narrow fusion zone
- Inert atmosphere (vacuum)
- Near parent metal strength
- Minimum component distortion
- Precision repeatability
- High accuracy welding
60Kv Welding
Commonly used for the manufacture of small components including battery cans, medical components, aneroid capsules, latches, bellows, relays and electronic parts including transducers. The low heat input means that sensitive internal electronics packages may be sealed in the device without harm.
150kv welding
150 kV machines are used extensively in the aero engine, aerospace and power generation industries. With 150 kV systems it is possible to weld at distances up to 1.5 m.
