Electron Beam (EB) Hearth Melting Vacuum Furnace

Electron Beam Melting offers efficient energy transfer in an ultra-high vacuum hearth.

Retech Electron Beam (EB) Hearth Melting furnaces are often configured similarly to PAM furnaces, with dual drum feeders, C-shaped hearths, and dual withdrawal chambers for continuous production.

Retech EB furnaces are never cookie-cutter designs, but some common features include:

  • C-shaped cold copper hearth for superior high- and low-density inclusion removal
  • Yields clean, as-cast metals that meet or exceed strictest purity standards (GE)
  • Melt reactive and refractory metals in sealed vacuum chamber
  • Eliminate the need for electrode welding and primary vacuum arc remelting
  • Can be designed for a wide range of capacities, from a few pounds to several tons
  • Custom engineered to match customer slab/ingot sizes and production requirements
  • Configurable with Single or multiple EB guns, feed systems, and withdrawal chambers
  • Mid-process sample extraction
  • Capable of higher throughput and larger ingots than PAM
  • Electron Beams from Von Ardenne, the worldwide leader in Electron Beam technology.

Company policy prohibits unlawful discrimination based on race, color, creed, gender, religion, marital status, registered domestic partner status, age, national origin or ancestry, physical or mental disability, medical condition including genetic characteristics, sexual orientation, or any other consideration made unlawful by federal, state, or local laws. It also prohibits unlawful discrimination based on the perception that anyone has any of those characteristics, or is associated with a person who has or is perceived as having any of those characteristics. All such discrimination is unlawful.

The Company is committed to compliance with all applicable laws providing equal employment opportunities. This commitment applies to all persons involved in Company operations and prohibits unlawful discrimination by any employee of the Company, including supervisors and coworkers.

To comply with applicable laws ensuring equal employment opportunities to qualified individuals with a disability, the Company will make reasonable accommodations for the known physical or mental limitations of an otherwise qualified individual with a disability who is an applicant or an employee unless undue hardship would result.

Any applicant or employee who requires an accommodation in order to perform the essential functions of the job should contact a Company representative with day-to-day personnel responsibilities and request such an accommodation. The individual with the disability should specify what accommodation he or she needs to perform the job. The Company then will conduct an investigation to identify the barriers that interfere with the equal opportunity of the applicant or employee to perform his or her job. The Company will identify possible accommodations, if any, that will help eliminate the limitation. If the accommodation is reasonable and will not impose an undue hardship, the Company will make the accommodation.

If you believe you have been subjected to any form of unlawful discrimination, submit a written complaint to your supervisor or the individual with day-to-day personnel responsibilities. Your complaint should be specific and should include the names of the individuals involved and the names of any witnesses.

The Company will immediately undertake an effective, thorough, and objective investigation and attempt to resolve the situation.

If the Company determines that unlawful discrimination has occurred, effective remedial action will be taken commensurate with the severity of the offense. Appropriate action also will be taken to deter any future discrimination. The Company will not retaliate against you for filing a complaint and will not knowingly permit retaliation by management employees or your coworkers.
