Electron-beam welding of thick components of steels, aluminium, and titanium alloys

Abstract

In this paper, conditions for vertical weld defectless formation at horizontal electron-beam welding (EBW) are shown and power-complex selection methods to weld thick-walled constructions by electron beam are developed. Dependences to estimate EBW optimal conditions are obtained.
