Abstract

The potential for reducing indirect manufacturing costs and the challenge to improve component performance justify active consideration of ion implantation in industrial metal processing. The need for interaction between the scientific community and the industrial community is shown with specific examples of methods employed by Westinghouse for accelerating this interaction.

A review of implantation activities at Westinghouse include basic technology studies, equipment considerations, material evaluation capabilities, factory trial results, and some of the planned areas of future interest. The preferred characteristics of targets of opportunity are identified and needed advances in technology and equipment are discussed.
