Electron beam welding

[@donaldpage607]

Back in my working years, I was something of an expert in electron beam welding. It is not new technology but the control systems are modern.

Hi

[@TechneMoira]

Do you think this kind of welding could also be done without an intense vacuum surrounding it? Or possibly in open air (with enough energy input) ? How do you protect operators from Xrays without making the machines extremely expensive and unwieldy? Thanks for the info

[@Rexxis-Arcturus]

Air molecules scatter the beam, making it impossible to focus.

[@turboencabulator2079]

Absolutely no side fumbling. The sperving bearings must be in perfect alignment.

I heard electron beam welding can be so good that in pieces that have subsequently failed it wasn't even in the welded sections but the solid area of the original material!

Talking about e-beam welding. Starting with a laser weld example...

Great video, never thought I'd see real footage of this method, only read about it in some Soviet book (I think inventor was Russian)

[@ryanmcintosh6714]

TIG or EBM. I actually thought EBM at first until I saw the discoloration. Damn nice job. Good enough I thought a machine did it, lol

[@gaffney92]

Very good video, thank you

[@toker6664]

Sheffield forgemasters have made it now applicable to large peices

"vacuum as a protective atmosphere"
I dont think they know what vacuum means
