Electron beam welding and bond diffusion

A unique electron beam welding process capable of joining dissimilar materials like ceramic to titanium. With a working volume of 8 litres (200 x 200 x 200 mm³) and a motion range of ± 50 mm, this process guarantees high hermetic performance and RF transparency, meeting the rigorous demands of medical device manufacturing.

Application examples: Joining ceramic components to titanium for orthopaedic implants.

Equipment available:

  • Small chamber Electron beam welder from Evobeam, generator with 6kW (60kV) and equipped Siemens SINUMERIK CNC hardware. Custom design to integrate a 1kN-60kN high performance electro-mechanical servo cylinder and a furnace up to 1,100 °C of continuous operation.
