Induction Brazing Machine

The induction brazing machine is used for carrying out induction brazing operations. It makes use of induction coils to activate localized heat in the materials to be brazed. The machine is best suited for brazing magnetic materials.


Induction Brazing
Induction brazing takes the benefits of induction heating ability to provide rapid localized heating to a particular portion without contact to the parts (components) being heated. It is not always essential to heat the entire part during brazing. Unlike other brazing methods like furnace brazing, induction heating provides the heat exactly where it is needed within the proximity to the joint. During the brazing process the narrow region on each of the two parts to be joined are brought to temperature at the same time. Rapid localized heat is provided, which can minimize oxidation and reduce cleaning after joining, especially when rapid cooling is utilized.



Because of the localized heating it often eliminates deformation and any other unwanted metallurgical changes in other regions of the part. Its ability to provide localized heat helps to produce neat and clean joints by restricting the alloy from flowing in areas that it shouldn't. Due to its ability to create clean and controllable joints, induction brazing is being used extensively in the electrical and electronics industries. Most of the variables are controllable (i.e., parts handling and fixturing, amount of alloy, time cycle, etc.), so it doesn't require skilled operators but even then produces high quality repeatable parts.
