Note: Brazing carbide teeth to steel pipe jaw section
Objective:
Brazing carbide teeth to a steel jaw in less than 5 minutes
End Product:
Steel pipe jaw
Equipment:
Ambrell 1.0 kW induction heating system, equipped with a remote workhead containing one 0.66µF capacitor An induction heating coil designed and developed specifically for this application.
Materials:
Steel pipe jaw, 0.5” (12.7mm) dia, 1.25” (31.75mm) long 0.25” (6.35mm) thick carbide teeth black flux silver copper braze shims
Temperature:
1292 ºF (700 ºC)
Frequency:
257kHz
Testing:
A two-turn rectangular helical coil is used to heat the carbide and steel to 1292ºF (700ºC) for 4 to 5 minutes. Three braze shims control the amount of braze and the even heat allows for a good flow of braze creating an aesthetically pleasing bond.
Benefits:
-
Hands-free heating that involves no operator skill for manufacturing
-
Consistent, repeatable aesthetically pleasing brazes
-
Even distribution of heating
