Dip Brazing Machine
|
The machine is used for dip brazing process, which utilizes heat from molten chemical flux or filler bath material for bonding two materials. The dip brazing process facilitates concurrent fusion of multiple joints with variable material thickness.
Brazing Process
The dip brazing process involves creating fusion of materials by heating them in a molten metal or chemical bath. The metal bath acts as the filler material. At times, a non ferrous filler material is used that have a melting point above 427oC, but care should be taken they have melting point lower than that of the base metals. The distributed of filler material in the joint is achieved by capillary action. The next step involves removing the assembly from the bath, cooling and cleaning them for further processing. The joints produced by dip brazing machines are leak proof.
Uses & Applications
The dip brazing machine is used for various brazing purposes. Some of its common applications include :
- Metallurgical Application
- Automobile Industry
- Joining Metals
- Joining Steel & Brass
Benefits of Dip Brazing Machines
- High Production Rates
Several assemblies can be dip brazed at one time in the machine. In one assembly several hundred joints can be dip brazed simultaneously. As the assembly becomes more complex it proves more advantageous in terms of high production rates and economy.
- Lower Equipment and Tooling Costs
The complex assemblies that would usually need expensive casting, machining and tooling can be fabricated from low cost component parts by brazing.
- Lower Finishing Costs
The finishing costs are very less because the as-brazed condition of assemblies is smooth and clean and they don't require other mechanical finishing.
