Electron-beam welding is a welding process in which electrons are generated by an electron gun and accelerated to high speeds by electric fields. This high-speed electron beam is focused using magnetic fields and applied to the materials to be joined. The electron beam generates kinetic heat as it strikes the workpieces, causing them to melt and join.
