12 kW, 80 kV Electron Beam Welding Machine


Electron Beam Welding Machine

Electron Beam Welding Machine

12kW, 80kV Electron Beam Welding (EBW) Machine is used for welding circular seams (280 mm maximum outer diameter) and linear seams (200 mm maximum length) of refractory as well as high strength materials such as Niobium, Zircalloy and maraging steel.

Electron Beam Welding (EBW) can produce deep penetration welds with very low mechanical distortion. This reduces the post weld machining cost. EBW is also useful in welding thick sections in a single pass. This process is preferred in applications wherein the purity of the weld is of utmost importance since the weld process is carried out under vacuum. 

EBW is mainly used for welding of nuclear and aerospace components. Advancements in the EBW process automation has lead to increased production throughput. Hence this welding process is presently receiving wider application in automotive and microelectronics industries.

INTRODUCTION

Electron Beam Welding (EBW) is a fusion welding process wherein a focused beam of high energy electrons is directed to the weld joint. The work-piece melt as the kinetic energy of the electrons is transformed into heat upon impact. Electron beams (EB) are amenable to fine control and therefore it is possible to obtain a high degree of accuracy and repeatability of the welding process under vacuum.

BARC has indigenously developed the 12 kW, 80 kV Electron Beam Welding Equipment to weld circular seams (280 mm maximum outer diameter) and linear seams (200 mm maximum length) of refractory as well as high strength materials such as Niobium (Nb), Zircalloy (Zr) and maraging steel.

ADVANTAGES OF EB WELDING 
The following are advantages of EB Welding compared to the other available popular welding methods:

  • High depth to width ratio (~ 20) with low mechanical distortions
  • Narrow heat affected zone due to low heat input
  • Dissimilar metal welding due to precise EB maneuverability

SPECIFICATIONS 
Electron gun & Power Supply

  • 80 kV,  12 kW EB gun
  • Long filament life under welding conditions( ~ 20 hours)
  • Medium frequency type HVDC power supply
  • CCTV for job alignment

Work Chamber

  • Rectangular cross section chamber (700 mm (w) 700 mm (L) 800 mm (h)

Work Handling System

  • 400 mm 400 mm Work table
  • Table travel in X & Y direction is 100 mm

Vacuum System

  • Vacuum in work chamber is better than 5  10-5 mbar
  • Vacuum in EB Gun chamber is better than 1  10-6 mbar
  • Two independent vacuum pumping modules for EB Gun chamber and Work chamber for increased throughput.

APPLICATIONS

Due to the high power density of the beam spot, this welding process can produce deep penetration welds with very low mechanical distortion. Hence EBW can be the last step in the manufacturing sequence. This reduces the post weld machining cost. EBW is also useful in welding thick sections in a single pass. In applications wherein the purity of the weld is of utmost importance, EBW has found favor as the weld process in carried out under vacuum. 
EBW is mainly used for welding of nuclear and aerospace components. Advancements in the EBW process automation has lead to increased production throughput. Hence this welding process is presently receiving wider application in automotive and microelectronics industries.

SUB-SYSTEMS OF THE EB WELDING EQUIPMENT 
The major sub-systems of the EBW equipment are as follows:

  • Electron Beam Gun Column
  • Work Chamber & Work handling system
  • Vacuum systems
  • Medium Frequency High voltage D.C. Power Source
  • Electronic control systems. 

WORKING PRINCIPLE

The EBW is defined as a fusion welding process wherein coalescence is produced by the heat obtained from the concentrated beam composed of high velocity electrons. The kinetic energy of the electrons changes to thermal energy thereby melting and fusing the work piece metal. Welding is often done in a vacuum environment to prevent dispersion of the electron beam. 
The EB is formed inside the EB gun chamber which consists of a filament, grid electrode and the anode. The electrons are generated by heating the filament and are accelerated by applying a high voltage between the filament and the anode. The grid electrode controls the amount of electrons that constitute the beam. The EB emerges from the gun through an aperture in the anode. It is then focused by electromagnetic lenses onto the weld joint. The work handling system maneuvers the job under the beam in a desired manner to complete the weld.

INFRASTRUCTURE  
EBW equipment needs expertise and manufacturing and test facilities in following areas:

  • Mechanical Engineering
  • Vacuum Engineering
  • High Voltage Engineering
  • Motion Control Engineering
  • Automation Engineering

RAW MATERIALSE  
The components needed for the manufacture of the equipment is available in India

MANPOWER  
The manufacture of EBW equipment requires highly skilled manpower in different fields of engineering.
