ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method are provided for welding portions of members disposed in edgewise abutment or overlapping relationship by means of a high intensity beam of radiation such as a laser beam or an electron beam generated by an electron gun. In one form, the two members are sheets of weldable material such as metal or plastic which are driven between aligned rolls or wheels into edgewise or overlapping abutment while one or more beams of radiations intersect either or both the members immediately in advance of or adjacent to the rolls or wheels. The combined effects of the force applied by the wheels and the heat of the beam serve to provide portions of the members welded together.
