Electron Beam Engineering Expands Services

Electron Beam Engineering, Inc. (EBE; Anaheim, CA), an established precision electron beam and laser beam welding company, has announced that it now offers laser marking for etching and engraving into metals and ceramics. “With our RMI Laser Marker we can create detailed and accurate lines, numbers, logos, or any desired mark on products or parts for easy tracking and traceability,” stated Grant Trillwood, the general manager of EBE. “We are also able to serialize and coordinate the laser marking with any laser or electron beam welding that we are performing on the same components.”

Laser marking, also known as laser etching or laser engraving, is a non-contact process to permanently mark products using a laser beam that quickly passes over the surface of the desired image, while carving out microscopic fragments of material. Because of the high precision of laser marking, even very delicate graphics and very small geometries will turn out clear and legible. The process is reliable, efficient, and is permanent and resistant to abrasion, heat, and acids.

“Whether your application involves a large volume of pieces or just a handful of parts, we can accommodate your project with the guarantee of quality results and a quick turnaround,” added Trillwood. “We also provide free samples, if desired.” EBE provides precision electron beam welding and laser beam welding services throughout the U.S., Europe, and Australia. They are located in Anaheim and specialize in working with complex components for a variety of applications including medical, sensor, aerospace, and automotive.

Robert Trillwood founded the company in 1991 and is the designer of the world’s first compact production electron beam welding machine, from which he has developed a wide range of precision laser and electron beam welders. In 2010, they were awarded “Manufacturer of the Year” by the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce and have earned a number of certifications in the welding, medical, and aerospace industries.
