Fermer Adds Electron Beam Welding & Vacuum Impregnation Capabilities
March 20th, 2009
Fermer Precision company officials announced today that it has expanded its capabilities to immediately provide electron beam welding (EBW) and vacuum impregnation services.
- EBW is used extensively in those components and assemblies where hermetic sealing is required without the adverse effects of distortion and shrinkage. EBW also allows for welding dissimilar metals, and/or in close proximity to heat sensitive components or peripheral components. Materials not normally weldable using conventional processes are easily achievable by using EBW.
- Vacuum impregnation is an advanced modern porosity sealing technique used to effectively seal castings, extend machining tooling life in powder metal components, and enhance finishing (plating & painting) operations. Sealing takes place at the micro-porosity level, and is widely used in housings containing grease, oils, contain other liquids or gases, and must retain fluid pressure under a wide variety of demanding automotive, hydraulic and electronic applications. The sealing process does not effect dimension characteristics.
