ISCO Specialization 7212.3.1 Electron Beam Welder
From Open Risk Manual
Definition
Electron Beam Welder: Electron beam welders set up and tend machines designed to join separate metal workpieces together through the use of a high-velocity electron beam. They monitor the machining processes providing an alteration in the kinetic energy of the electrons that allows for them to transform into heat for the metal to melt and join together in a process of precise welding.
