Sciaky Shipping Three "Tunnel Sized" EB Welding Systems
Sciaky Inc. announces shipment of the first of three Large EBW Machines to Overseas Customers. CHICAGO, May 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Sciaky, Inc. of Chicago has announced shipment of a VX-300 Electron Beam Welding machine in May 2025. This machine will be followed by two additional machines of similar layout to overseas customers. These machines will each feature a chamber size of 300″ x 110″ x 110″, and a work envelope of 250″ x 42″ x 60″. These machines will ship with standard 5-axis CNC controls and EB welding capabilities, with the accommodations for additional CNC Axes and EBAM capability in the future. The machines will be used primarily in the Aerospace and Semiconductor industries, but will have the flexibility to be useful for any future business these customers acquire. Sciaky has been newsworthy for the past decade with their developments in Electron Beam Additive Manufacturing, but these machine contracts highlight their world leadership in Electron Beam Welding machines. Known for their medium and large-chamber moving gun EBW machines, Sciaky has installations in US-based and international installations in the Aerospace, Power Generation, Automotive, and Oil/Gas Exploration fields. These machines will feature multi-axis heavy-duty machines with up to 42kW of beam power, EBW users have been using Sciaky Electron Beam technology since the early 1960's for the most demanding and precise metal joining tasks. According to Scott Phillips, CEO of Sciaky's parent company Phillips Service Industries, Inc.: 'We find that too many in the industry do not realize that our EBAM platform is a truly dual-use technology, where every EBAM machine retains it's full functionality as a CNC Electron Beam Welder. In the past, this has helped many of our machine buyers in their justification to purchase a machine. We feel this makes our product somewhat unique in the Welding and Additive Manufacturing worlds.' Historically, Sciaky will have multiple machines of both capabilities in process in process in our Chicago manufacturing facility. You can approach the engineering staff at Sciaky for application assistance for both EBAM and EBW projects that can range from equipment acquisition through prototypes, development or one of a kind production.

World's largest single-site titanium remelting facility inaugurated in Lucknow
LUCKNOW: Defence minister Rajnath Singh and Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Adityanath inaugurated India's largest Titanium and Superalloy Materials Plant operated by Aerolloy Technologies Limited , a PTC Industries Limited subsidiary, and laid the foundation stones for additional state-of-the-art facilities under India's first Strategic Materials Technology Complex at the Lucknow node of the Uttar Pradesh Defence Industrial Corridor . The newly inaugurated Titanium Plant spread across 50 acre has an annual capacity of 6,000 tonnes and stands as the world's largest single-site titanium remelting facility . Advanced technologies such as Vacuum Arc Remelting (VAR), Electron Beam (EB), Plasma Arc Melting (PAM), and Vacuum Induction Melting (VIM) enable India to produce aerospace-grade materials domestically. Alongside the titanium plant, foundation stones for seven additional advanced facilities were laid, including the Aerospace Precision Castings Plant, which will enable Single Crystal Castings production crucial for jet engines; the Aerospace Forge Shop & Mill Products Plant, which will eliminate the need for imports of billets, bars, and plates for aerospace applications; and the Aerospace Precision Machining Shop, which will allow the export of ready-to-assemble ultra-precision CNC machined components.

The STrIDE Academy will function as a skilling hub for CNC, robotics, welding, and mechatronics, while the R&D Centre will drive alloy and process breakthroughs. Collaboration with UK's Trac Precision Solutions will support India in mastering Single Crystal Airfoils production for jet engines. A company spokesperson stated that India's annual defence-grade materials imports, worth Rs 14,000 crore, were projected to rise to Rs 35,000 crore by 2026, but the Aerolloy complex would help reduce reliance on foreign suppliers. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Google Brain Co-Founder Andrew Ng, Recommends: Read These 5 Books And Turn Your Life Around Blinkist: Andrew Ng's Reading List Undo Defence Minister Rajnath Singh remarked, "We are not just inaugurating a plant—we are securing India's strategic future."
