Aerospace applications demand welds of the highest integrity, where quality, reliability and repeatability are essential. Electron Beam Welding (EBW) delivers deep penetration, narrow welds and exceptionally low distortion, making it ideal for safety-critical flight and propulsion components.
Performed in a high vacuum environment, EBW protects reactive materials from oxidation and contamination while producing defect-free welds with minimal heat input. This enables manufacturers to reduce part count, lower machining costs and improve overall component performance.
Fabricated using electron beam welding to join the many blade sections together results in a precise, repeatable weld. Titanium is perfectly suited to the electron beam welding process as it is done in a vacuum to avoid oxidation.
This extremely complex assembly is fabricated from several relatively simple components. There are not many other welding processes that you could successfully employ for this type of product. The part requires linear, circumferential, and planetary welds during successive operations.
This major rotating component demands welds of high integrity, in 901 nickel. Fabrication by electron beam welding achieves savings in weight, material, and machining costs.
Manufacture and repair across three tiers of the aero-engine and airframe – from individual components through to complete rotating assemblies and structural parts.
