To control the TC4 sheet joint formation during electron beam welding is not an easy task. However, the electron beam current has a significant influence on joint formation and a good appearance of a T-joint can be obtained by increasing the heat input and using the electron beam scan method. It was found that all acicular martensite in the fusion zone (FZ) consisted primarily of α' phase titanium, with some β phase present. Grain coarsening occurred in the heat-affected zone (HAZ) due to transformation of the β phase.
