EBAM Services
Sciaky, Inc.
Are you looking to streamline costly processes associated with traditional titanium and high-value metal part manufacturing? Partnering closely with your team, Sciaky additively manufactures metal parts, structures, and prototypes with its Electron Beam Additive Manufacturing (EBAM) machines.
Whereas forgings and castings can take many months to complete, the EBAM process for titanium 3D printing can produce large-scale structures in a matter of days, with virtually no material waste. In fact, Sciaky’s EBAM process produces the highest metal build rate and quality in the additive manufacturing market.
EBAM Systems
Sciaky, Inc.
All of our systems combine computer-aided design (CAD), electron beam directed energy deposition, and layer-additive processing. Starting with a 3D model from a CAD program, Sciaky's electron beam (EB) gun deposits metal (via wire feedstock) in successive layers until the part reaches near-net shape. Each system’s vacuum chamber ensures the highest part integrity, while the EB gun maximizes material deposition rates by a range of 7 to 40 lbs. (3.18 to 18.14 kg) of metal per hour, which is the fastest and most efficient metal deposition process on the market. In addition, many EBAM systems offer dual wirefeed arrangements to increase deposition efficiency, as well as to simplify the process of switching to different deposition materials. Minor finish machining is required after the part reaches near-net shape.

EB Welders
Sciaky, Inc.
Electron Beam (EB) Welding is an excellent choice for applications containing refractory alloys and dissimilar materials. Advantages of EB Welding technology include a high power density with very low overall heat input and, therefore, minimum distortion. EB welded parts require a minimum of post-weld machining and heat treatment, and, unlike other fusion welding processes, EB requires no shielding gases. The weld quality is exceptional and the process is extremely efficient (typically 95%), carefully controlled and fully automated.

About
Sciaky, Inc. will highlight its groundbreaking Electron Beam Additive Manufacturing, (EBAM®) technology. EBAM is the most trusted industrial 3D solution in the world for large-scale metal parts, with approved applications in four dimensions: land, sea, air, and space.
In addition, EBAM is the most widely scalable metal AM solution in the industry (in terms of work envelope), with part production capabilities ranging from 8” (203mm) to 19’ (5.79m) in length. EBAM is also one of the fastest deposition processes in the metal AM market, with deposition rates up to 40 lbs. (18.14kg) of metal per hour. EBAM brings quality control together with IRISS® - the Interlayer Real-time Imaging and Sensing System, which is the only real-time adaptive control system in the metal 3D printing market that can sense and digitally self-adjust metal deposition with precision repeatability. This innovative closed-loop control is the primary reason that Sciaky’s EBAM 3D printing process delivers consistent part geometry, mechanical properties, microstructure, and metal chemistry, from the first part to the last.
Starting with a 3D model from a CAD program, Sciaky’s electron beam (EB) gun deposits metal, via wire feedstock, layer-by layer, until the part reaches near-net shape and is ready for heat treatment and finish machining. Wire feedstock is significantly less expensive, easier to store, and is safer to handle than some highly flammable powder feedstocks. Overall, EBAM reduces material costs with significantly less waste, shortens lead times, and reduces machining times by as much as 80% compared to conventional manufacturing. Plus, with EBAM’s pure vacuum environment, the process doesn’t require the use of argon or any inert gas for part shielding.
The best material candidates for EBAM applications are weldable metals that are available in wire feedstock. These include titanium and titanium alloys, Inconel, tantalum, tungsten, niobium, stainless steels, copper nickel, and nickel copper. Furthermore, with an EBAM dual-wirefeed system, you can combine two different metal alloys into a single melt pool, managed with independent program control, to create custom alloy parts or ingots. You also have the option to change the mixture ratio of the two materials, depending upon the features of the part that you are building, to create graded parts or structures. In addition, you can alternate between different wire gauges for finer deposition features (thin wire) and gross deposition features (thick wire).
