Abstract

An review of studies on the development of technologies for creating joints of intermetallic titanium alloys is presented. Today, electron beam welding is most common method for producing welded joints of this class of alloys. Brands of filler materials and solders used for intermetallic titanium alloys, as well as the properties that can be obtained when using them, are given. Approaches to the choice of welding technology that ensure the production of high-quality joints with the required characteristics are described.
