Laser Beam Welding: Audio Recording
8:15

Laser Beam Welding (LBW) is an advanced technique that uses a narrow beam of light to join pieces of metal. Laser welding is used to fuse parts by forming a pool of liquefied metal at the junction point where two pieces of metal meet. This technique is better than most for joining dissimilar metals and those that are typically difficult to weld.

Manufacturing Process Selection Guide Vol. 1: Electron Beam Welding

Posted by John Marshall on Jul 31, 2023 5:03:07 PM

Why select Electron Beam Welding (EBW)?

Advance Welding offers a wide range of manufacturing processes for design engineers and supply chain managers to select from, including EBW. Our team of seasoned professionals is here to help you weigh the benefits and tradeoffs of EBW as compared to other processes that we offer such as Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW/TIG), laser beam welding (LBW) and others. A key characteristic of EBW is high energy density: the minimum volume of metal is melted with the minimum heat input for a given depth of penetration. Another important characteristic is that EBW occurs under vacuum within a chamber.
