Box 14200, FI Aalto, Finland Visiting address: Puumiehenkuja 3, Espoo pedro.vilaca@aalto.fi ; Skype: fsweldone January 2015 Electron Beam welding (EBW) Process Overview EBW is a fusion joining process that produces coalescence of materials with heat obtained by impinging a beam composed primarily of high energy electrons onto the joint to be welded: transformation of Mechanical energy into Heat energy Principles of Operation The heart of the EBW process is the electron beam gun/column assembly Electrons are generated by heating a negatively charged emitting material to its thermionic emission temperature range, causing electrons to "boil off" this emitter or cathode and be attracted to the positively charged anode. Bias cup surrounding the emitter provides the electrostatic field geometry that then simultaneously accelerates and shapes these electrons into the beam. The beam then exits the gun through an opening in the anode. 1 1
2 Generation Acceleration Focusing Guidance Working zone Simplified Representation of a Triode Electron Beam Gun Column 2 Upon exiting the gun, this beam of electrons accelerates to speeds in the range of 30 to 70 % of the speed of light, when gun operating voltages are in the range of V = 25kV to 200kV. The mechanical power of a beam of electrons can be calculated from the following analysis, based on the kinetic energy of the beam per unit of time: E Pkinetic t Where : m v e e v luz typicaly : v kinetic e 1 me n v kg m / s 0.3;0.7 v luz 2 e n number of electrons per unit of time Typical Power are in the range of: 1 to 5 kw 3 2
3 In practice, the rate of Heat Input to the weld joint is controlled by the following four basic variables: 1. Number of electrons per second being impinged on the workpiece (beam current) 2. Magnitude of velocity of these electrons (beam accelerating voltage) 3. Degree to which this beam is concentrated at workpiece (focal beam spot size) 4. Travel speed with which workpiece or electron beam is being moved (welding speed) 4 Selection Of Welding Variables The rate of energy input to the workpiece during EBS is: Energy input (heat input), J/mm Where: V = beam accelerating voltage, V I = beam current, A P = beam power, W or J/s v = travel speed, mm/s = fusion efficiency Heat input V I P v v beam 5 3
4 Change in individual welding variables will affect the penetration and bead geometry in the following manner: Accelerating voltage: as the accelerating voltage is increased, the depth of penetration achievable will also increase. (V = 25 to 200 kv) Beam current: for any given accelerating voltage: the penetration achievable will increase with beam current. (I = 0.05 to 1 A) Travel speed: for any given beam power level, the weld bead will become narrow and the penetration will decrease as the travel speed is increased Beam Spot size: sharp focus of the beam will produce a narrow, parallel-sided weld geometry because the effective beam power density will be maximum (diameter = 0.25 to 0.75 mm) Note: Defocusing the beam, either by over focusing or under focusing, will increase the effective beam diameter and reduce beam power density 6 Equipment: Classifications of EBW Equipment 7 4
5 Equipment: Level of Vacuum in Gun and Working Cameras Variants: High-Vacuum: 10-3 to 10-6 Torr Fine-Vacuum: 25 to 10-3 Torr Non-vacuum (1 atm 760 Torr) High-vacuum chamber equipment for EBW 8 Equipment: Level of Vacuum in Gun and Working Cameras. High-vacuum, medium-vacuum, and non-vacuum (atmospheric pressure) EBW equipment employs: i) electron beam gun / column assembly; ii) one or more vacuum pumping systems; iii) power supply. Gun Working camera 9 5
6 Equipment: Importance of Level of Vacuum in Gun and Working Cameras. Increased divergence of electron beam Reduce the speed of electrons by friction and collision with atmospheric particles To avoid oxidation of the cathode the compressions in beam source are always needed and are always equal or higher than the ones in the working chamber 10 Equipment: Influence of Level of Vacuum in EBW Penetration. 11 6

9 Equipment: Geometric shape and type of cathodes. Filament Tape Helicoidally Spiral 16 Equipment: Material of cathodes. 17 9
10 Equipment: Sample of an electronic scanning for joint tracking. 18 Once the beam exits from the gun, it will gradually broaden with distance travelled In order to counteract this inherent divergence effect, an electromagnetic lens system is used to converge the beam, which focuses it into a small spot on the workpiece The beam divergence and convergence angles are relatively small, which gives the concentrated beam a long usable focal range, or depth of focus 19 10
11 The resulting beam power levels and power densities attainable from these units can reach values as high as 100 kw and 1.55 x 10 4 W/mm². Such power densities are significantly higher than those possible with arc welding processes At power densities on the order (1.55 x 10² W/mm²), and greater, the electron beam is capable of instantly penetrating into a solid workpiece or a butt joint and forming a vapour capillary (keyhole) which is surrounded by molten metal As the beam advances along the joint molten metal from the forward portion of the keyhole flows around its periphery and solidifies at the rear to form weld metal
12 The weld penetration formed is much deeper than it is wide, and the heat affected zone produced is very narrow. For example, the width of a butt weld in 13 mm thick steel plate may be as small as 0.8 mm. This stands in remarkable contrast to the weld zone produced in arc and gas welded joints, where penetration is achieved primarily through conduction melting. 1. EBW 2. GTAW 3. OGW 22 Advantages 23 12
13 Advantages The following advantages of electron beam welding: - The EBW directly converts electrical energy into beam output mechanical energy. Thus the process is extremely efficient - Electron beam weldments exhibit a high depth-to-width ratio. This feature allows for single-pass welding of thick joints - The heat input per unit length for a given depth of penetration can be much lower than with arc welding. The resulting narrow weld zone results in low distortion, and fewer deleterious thermal effects 24 - A high-purity environment (vacuum for welding) minimizes contamination of the metal by oxygen and nitrogen - The ability to project the beam over distance of several centimetres in vacuum often allows welds to be made in otherwise inaccessible locations - Rapid travel speeds are possible because of the high melting rates associated with this concentrated heat source. This reduces welding time and increases productivity and energy efficiency - Reasonably square butt joints in both thick and relatively thin plates can be welded in one pass without filler metal addition 25 13
14 - Hermetic closures can be welded with the high or medium-vacuum modes of operation while retaining a vacuum inside the component - The beam of electrons can be magnetically deflected to produce various shape welds and magnetically oscillated to improve weld quality or increase penetration - The forced beam of electrons has a relatively long depth of focus, which will accommodate a broad range of work distances - Full penetration, single-pass welds with nearly parallel sides, and exhibiting nearly symmetrical shrinkage, can be produced - Dissimilar metals and metals with high thermal conductivity such as copper can be welded 26 Limitations 27 14
15 Limitations Capital costs are substantially higher than those of arc welding equipment depending on the volume of parts to be produced, however, the final per piece part costs attainable with EBW can be highly competitive Preparation for welds with high depth-to-width ratio requires precision machining of the joint edges, exacting joint alignment, and good fit-up The rapid solidification rates achieved can cause cracking in highly constrained, low ferrite stainless steel For high and medium vacuum welding, work chamber size must be large enough to accommodate the assembly operation. The time needed to evacuate the chamber will influence production costs 28 Partial penetration welds with high depth-to-width ratios are susceptible to root voids and porosity Because the electron beam is deflected by magnetic fields, non-magnetic or properly degaussed metals should be used for tooling and fixturing close to the beam path With the non-vacuum mode of electron beam welding, the restriction on work distance from the bottom of the electron beam gun column to the work will limit the product design in areas directly adjacent to the weld joint With all modes of EBW, radiation shielding must be maintained to ensure that there is no exposure of personnel to the X-radiation generated by EB welding 29 15
16 Adequate ventilation is required with non vacuum EBW, to ensure proper removal of ozone and other harmful gases formed during this mode of EB welding Full penetration, single-pass welds with nearly parallel sides, and exhibiting nearly symmetrical shrinkage, can be produced Dissimilar metals and metals with high thermal conductivity such as copper can be welded 30 Characteristics of Welds Produces weld metal geometries that differ significantly from made by conventional arc welding process. The geometry of typical electron beam weld exhibits a weld depth-to-width ratio that is very large in comparison to that of an arc weld This feature results from the high-power density of the electron beam. The high depth-to-width ratios of electron beam welds account for two important advantages of the process: Relatively thick joints can be welded in a single pass For a given thickness, the travel speed is much greater than can be attained with arc welding 31 16
17 Welding Procedures Joint Designs Butt, corner, lap, edges, and T-joints can be made by EBW using square-butt joints or seam welds Fillet welds are difficult to make and are not generally attempted 32 Joint Preparation and Fit-Up When no filler wire is added, the fit-up of parts must be more precise then for arc welding processes. The beam must impinge on and melt both members simultaneously, except for seam welds where the beam penetrates through the top sheet Underfill or incomplete fusion will result from poor fit-up, and lap joints which are not clamped sufficiently will burn through 33 17
18 Typical Joint Designs for EBW Seam Appearance at Atmospheric EB-Welding Seam Appearance for EB-Welding in Vacuum 34 Metals Welded In general, all metals and its alloys that can be fusion welded by other welding processes can also be joined by EBW This includes similar and dissimilar metal combinations that are metallurgically compatible However, if EBW is applied to metals that are subject to hot cracking or porosity, the welds will often contain such discontinuities 35 18
19 Steels Rimmed and Killed Steels Note: Rimmed steels differ from killed steels in that the amount of deoxidising agent (manganese, ferrosilicon and aluminium, resulting in Al 2 O 3 ) added is less. Killed steels are totally deoxidised, whereas rimmed steels are only partially deoxidised. Chemical reaction that occurs between carbon and oxygen to form carbon monoxide gas (CO) will occur in the molten weld pool As a result, violent weld pool action, spatter, and porosity in the solidified weld metal are expected with this type of steel Electron beam welds in rimmed steel can be improved if deoxidizers, such as manganese, silicon, or aluminium, are incorporated through filler metal additions 36 Hardenable Steel Thick sections of hardenable steels may crack when electron beam welded without preheat Stainless Steels Austenitic Stainless Steels- EBW helps to inhibit carbide precipitation in stainless steels because of the short time that the weld zone is in the sensitizing temperature range. However, the high cooling rate may cause cracking in highly constrained, low ferrite grades of material Martensitic Stainless Steels- Hardness and susceptibility to cracking increase with increasing carbon content and cooling rate. Prevented by preheating the base materials before welding 37 19
20 Precipitation-Hardening Stainless Steels- The semi-austenitic types, such as 17-7PH and PH14-8 Mo, can be welded as readily as the 18-8 types of austenitic stainless steels In the more martensitic types, such as 17-4 PH and 15-5 PH, the low carbon content precludes formation of hard martensite in the weld metal and heat-affected zone 38 Aluminum Alloys- In general, aluminum alloys that can be readily welded by gas tungsten arc and gas metal arc welding can be electron beam welded Titanium and zirconium- These materials and their alloys must be welded in an inert environment. High vacuum electron beam welding is best for both metals, but medium vacuum and non-vacuum welding with inert gas shielding may be acceptable for some titanium applications. Refractory metals- Excellent process for joining the refractory metals, because the high-power density allows the joint to be welded with minimum heat input. (Ta, Mo) 39 20

23 Applications 44 Applications EBW is primarily used for two distinctly different types of applications: high precision high production low weldability advanced engineering materials high penetration/width with low heat input Types of applications are mainly in the nuclear, aircraft, aerospace, and electronic industries: Typical products include nuclear fuel elements, special alloy jet engine components, pressure vessels for rocket propulsion components, pressure vessels for rocket propulsion system, and hermetically sealed vacuum devices Others examples are gears, frames, steering columns, and transmission and drive-train parts for automobiles; thin-wall tubing; band saw and hacksaw blades; and other bimetal strip applications 45 23
