EBW is a machine controlled process, with welding carried out in vacuum with no filler material, resulting in exceptional weld quality and repeatability.

Weld speeds are typically 1-2 metres/min and result in deep, narrow welds requiring less than 5% of the heat input needed for a comparable depth TIG weld.

The remarkably low distortion resulting from EB welds means precision parts can be finished machined prior to welding, even ground gears.
