Electron beam welding (EBW) covers the joining of aerospace structural components and assemblies in high-vacuum chambers using a focused, high-energy electron beam to produce deep-penetration, low-distortion welds in materials including titanium alloys, nickel superalloys, refractory metals and aluminium, with applications spanning engine casings, turbine discs and airframe structural members requiring precise heat-affected zone control.
