| | Oct 31, 2013 — Joining Technologies, an innovator in laser cladding, electron beam and laser welding applications, announces capabilities in both laser beam welding and electron beam welding. The company is using its expanded capabilities to take on more welding projects in the medical device and aerospace industries. It is also better able to streamline the manufacturing process for a variety of products that use both Laser and EB for different steps, including sensors, medical devices and products that require a sealed vacuum.
Joining Technologies is considered the thought leader in both EB and laser welding and has the qualified engineering resources in house to support that claim. The company takes full advantage of each technology’s particular advantages when fusing together complex geometries and meeting demands for superior metallurgy.
Having access to both technologies can be especially useful for jobs that require a vacuum within the finished part. Generally a laser will be used wherever possible to keep cycle times and costs down while EB is employed to achieve the deeper penetration welds or to create a vacuum.
