Induction Soldering Brass Tube-Pipe-Tubing With RF Soldering Heating System
Objective: Soldering two brass tubes measuring 3/4″ and 1/4″ together for use as cellularย phone antennas. The lengths of tubes range from four (4) feet to twelve (12)ย feet, and must be soldered along the axial side. The joint is to be made usingย 60/40 Tin Lead Solder and Kestor Rosin paste flux.
Material: Brass Tubes measuring 3/4″ and 1/4″ย 60/40 Tin Lead Solder
Kestor Rosin Flux
Temperature: 3750F
Application: Through the use of the the DW-UHF-40KW output solid state inductionย power supply along with a unique five (5) turn 12″ long channel coil, the followingย results were achieved:
3750 F was reached and the solder flowed after a heating period of 35ย seconds.
A production rate of 24″ per minute was determined to be adequate.
A quality solder fillet was observed after heating and cooling
Equipment: DW-UHF-40kW output solid state induction power supply includingย one (1) remote heat station containing two (2) capacitors, and a unique fiveย (5) turn channel coil made from 3/16″ copper tubing and measuring 1 1/4″ byย 12″.
Frequency: 385 kHz
