Electron beam technology is an advanced method for processing of metallic and non-metallic materials, which usually cannot be easily done by conventional techniques. These are special welds, connections of the difficult weld able materials and reactive ones, creation or modification of the surface layers, surface hardening and more. In 2013 on IMSE and NETME FME has been launched the laboratory electron beam technology. It is equipped with the technology of the German company Pro-beam with the industry chamber K26. Its dimensions make it possible to implement processes for large parts. Maximum power electron beam – 15 kW, determines the conditions for technological applications in a wide range of power, speed and trajectory. The article introduced the technology, its performance and technical parameters and applications with specific examples.
