Abstract
The Plasma Materials Test Facility, in its third decade of operation at Sandia National Laboratories, upgraded the 30-kW system to 60 kW (EB60) with a new gun, grid control and power supply. In 2007 we are testing mockups in EB60 to assess processes for joining Be to CuCrZr and CuCrZr to 316LN-IG for the fabrication of US first wall (FW) panels for ITER. In our 1.2 MW dual gun electron beam, EB1200, we will test Be-armored FW quality mockups of the US and other ITER Parties.
