Abstract: In an Ebeam system, the cathode assembly and/or the window assembly can be simply and quickly replaced or exchanged as required by conditions of use, without replacing the vacuum chamber, or other component systems. In some cases, replacement may be made without removing the vacuum chamber from its installed position. As a result, the cathode assembly and the window assembly can be readily changed over for maintenance. In addition, modular replacement cathode assemblies and window assemblies having varying characteristics may be selected to match a specific desired application, and then installed into the system. The system may be designed as a compact and lightweight portable device.

Abstract: A method and apparatus (11) for irradiating an electron beam, wherein a triangular wave generator (22) provides a triangular wave current to a scanning coil (17) to move the electron beam in a first scanning direction (Y), while a square wave generator (21) provides a square wave current to a deflecting coil (16) to move the electron beam in a second scanning direction (X) orthogonal to the first scanning direction (Y). The triangular wave current provided from the triangular wave generator is modulated to cancel the effects of hysteresis in the scanning coil. Further, the rise of the square wave current is synchronized and shifted a prescribed interval in relation to the peak values of the triangular wave current in order to distribute the reversing points on the electron beam path along the second scanning direction.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device to irradiate surfaces with electrons, especially to harden surface layers. The device includes a vacuum chamber that has an electron beam window; an electron beam-permeable film that closes off the vacuum chamber from the ambient medium; and an electron beam generating system, consisting of a cathode and a forming electrode which are connected to a high-voltage and beam current feed line. In order to achieve an increase of the electron beam power and to reduce the energy losses during the transfer out of the electron beam window in such a device, according to the invention, the forming electrode is designed as a tubular hollow body with inner hollow space lengthwise dividers and with a lengthwise slit that is open towards the electron beam window. A wire-shaped cathode is arranged in each hollow space segment divided off by the hollow space lengthwise divider.
