The target and base plate mentioned above are made of copper, and the size of the female opening is about 0.010 inches smaller than that of the male component. The male and female components are machined to different surfaces. The target / base plate assembly is subjected to pressure, which enables the male and female coupling members to be friction-fitted. After the pressure is applied, the peripheral parts of the component are welded together by the action of an electron beam. After the steps of this welding process are completed, a final machining process is performed so that the areas that have been welded cannot be removed. Thus, the locking joint of this invention can be described as a friction-fit joint composed of a male member protruding outward and a corresponding female opening, wherein the male member protruding outward is arranged on a member The female opening is formed on another member.
