FAQs – EB Industries https://ebindustries.com A top provider of precision fusion welding services Thu, 05 Dec 2024 18:10:19 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.5 Biomedical welding https://ebindustries.com/faq/biomedical-welding/ Fri, 01 Nov 2024 19:09:10 +0000 https://ebindustries.com/?post_type=faq&p=5199 Biomedical welding includes welding components that are meant to interact or integrate with the human body. Titanium is often used for this type of welding due to its biocompability within the body. Laser welding titanium can be difficult due to its reflectivity, but EB Industries has employed a number of proprietary processes to overcome this.  

]]> What kind of welding is used for medical welding? https://ebindustries.com/faq/what-kind-of-welding-is-used-for-medical-welding/ Fri, 01 Nov 2024 19:07:08 +0000 https://ebindustries.com/?post_type=faq&p=5196 Electron beam and laser welding are 2 of the most common forms of welding used in the medical industry. This is because of the minimal and precise heat input, ability to weld difficult materials and shorter processing times equipped to handle larger volumes. Also, the repeatability of the process ensures that all welds will achieve the high quality levels required for its applications.  

]]> What certifications are required for medical welding? https://ebindustries.com/faq/what-certifications-are-required-for-medical-welding/ Fri, 01 Nov 2024 19:04:24 +0000 https://ebindustries.com/?post_type=faq&p=5192 There are less certifications required in the medical industry as compared to the aerospace industry but weld technicians in the medical industry should be properly trained to run the equipment. It’s more common to have quality certifications such as ISO 13845 in the medical industry as it proves that your quality system is capable of consistently producing medical assemblies.

Laser welding is the most common form of welding used in the medical industry due to its quick cycle times, cosmetic appearance and minimal and precise heat input.  

]]> What method is used to weld semiconductors? https://ebindustries.com/faq/what-method-is-used-to-weld-semiconductors/ Fri, 01 Nov 2024 18:36:31 +0000 https://ebindustries.com/?post_type=faq&p=5185 There are several processes used in welding semiconductors: 

    1. Electron Beam Welding 
    2. Laser Beam Welding 
    3. Orbital Welding 

Each of these processes has its own advantages and disadvantages so every application is different depending on which process would be best.  

 

 

 

]]> What is orbital welding? https://ebindustries.com/faq/what-is-orbital-welding/ Fri, 01 Nov 2024 18:33:01 +0000 https://ebindustries.com/?post_type=faq&p=5182 Orbital welding is a welding process where the welding tool is rotated 360° around a stationary workpiece. The part is clamped in a welding fixture and the orbital welding head is positioned at the weld joint so that the welding arc can orbit around the workpiece. This process can be done using either a consumable or non-consumable electrode and can be highly automated.

  • Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field-effect Transistor (MOSFET) – These are used for switching or amplifying signals. They are the most commonly used semiconductor device due its ability to change conductivity with the amount of voltage that is applied. 
    • Diode – These are used as a one-way valve in a circuit which allows current to flow in one direction.  
    • Transistors – These are used to control, amplify or switch electrical signals and power.

  • Smartphones 
    • Televisions 
    • Computers 
    • Washing machines 
    • Refrigerators  
    ]]>         What is an example of a semiconductor? https://ebindustries.com/faq/what-is-an-example-of-a-semiconductor/ Fri, 01 Nov 2024 17:52:32 +0000 https://ebindustries.com/?post_type=faq&p=5172 An example of a semiconductor is silicon. The reason silicon is a semiconductor is because it can be used as a conductor at times and an insulator at other times. This makes it critical in the semiconductor industry and is why it is widely used in electronic devices.  

    ]]>         What is the main purpose of semiconductors? https://ebindustries.com/faq/what-is-the-main-purpose-of-semiconductors/ Fri, 01 Nov 2024 17:47:25 +0000 https://ebindustries.com/?post_type=faq&p=5169 The main purpose of a semiconductor is to partially conduct electricity which allows the device to act as a switch turning current on and off. This is essential for the functioning of electronic devices. The manufacturing of these components is very difficult which is why it involves many processes and very expensive equipment requiring components to be welded to function.
