A Shift to Helping People and Saving Lives
 A Message from 
Richard Trillwood

One of the most rewarding aspects of being part of a successful business is knowing that what we do is benefiting the lives of so many people in so many different ways. Back in the seventies in England where I started my life-long career in hi-tech welding, there was a major emphasis on producing military weaponry. Of course, these devices became more sophisticated with the help of hi-tech welding technologies which enabled the improvement of everything from land mines to the depleted uranium core of a nuclear weapon.
  
Although defense devices still use EB and Laser welding, our involvement has predominantly shifted to assisting in the manufacture of medical devices to save lives and aerospace components that are used in many civil aircraft and in communication satellites. The knowledge of where our welds are being used is not always known to us since we have no "need to know," and in any case our customer jobs are covered by confidentiality agreements. Nevertheless, because we are able to let the world know that we have some very sophisticated ways of welding simple and complex metal combinations that have solved our customers' problems, we find new applications arriving on our doorstep every day.
  
Word is getting around about the good work we do and in particular the constructive help that we have given to customers in being able to assist in their designs for high yield, high quality and optimized production rates. These goals and the lives we have saved or enhanced are being carried on by our team of family members and highly skilled workforce in our well-equipped, clean and organized facility in Anaheim, just two miles from Disneyland.
  
How can we help you with your goals?
  
Thank you to all those customers and employees that have contributed to our success.

Proud to be Part of Cassini Mission


Electron Beam Engineering announced that its welding work on the Cassini Mission's Titan-Huygens Probe has maintained throughout the entire mission starting in January 2005, when it was jettisoned into Titan's atmosphere, and due to end in September 2017.  "We started working with NASA in 1997 on the European Space Agency's Huygens Probe aboard the Cassini Orbiter that was to journey for seven years to Titan for exploration, one of the moons of Saturn," said Richard Trillwood, CEO of Electron Beam Engineering (EBE).  "Aerospace has been a core industry of EBE for decades and we understand that precision welds and weld integrity are of the utmost importance on these intricate components."
  
EBE was presented with the challenge of joining the titanium materials and electrical components comprising the Gas Chromatograph Mass Spectrometer (GCMS), a sophisticated and powerful instrument used to study the chemical composition, origin, and evolution of Titan's atmosphere.  Due to the sensitivity of the components welded, electron beam welding was used because it produces very little heat, reducing the possibility of damage to the high-value components.  This type of welding is also extremely precise and is a preferred technique for small precision parts requiring very high-quality welds.
