Getter Firing with induction

 

How Does Induction Getter Firing or flashing Work?

A flashed getter, made of reactive material, is heated with induction and the activated material oxidizes, condenses on the cool vessel walls in a thin coating, which continues to absorb gas and oxygen and other impurities, which increases the vacuum vessel's life.

Induction generates an electromagnetic field in a work coil that induces currents in the conductive material of a workpiece placed within or near the coil. Friction from these currents elevates the temperature of the workpieces and filler to be brazed.

The 2.5 second firing cycle allows for the coil to be move around the part and away within the indexing time of the turnstile table.
