Cambridge Vacuum Engineering's roots begin in the late 1950's in Cambridge, England with the founding of Torvac, a company specialising in the manufacture of Electron Beam Welders and Vacuum Furnaces.
A break-a-way group formed Wentgate Engineers in the mid 1960's and for many years the two companies traded in competition.
Torvac purchased the Hawker Siddley Dynamics "Dynaweld" technology, which added 150kV welders to their range.
