Brazing Carbide To Steel ShankĀ with Induction
Objective :Brazing carbide teeth to a steel jaw in less than 5 minutes
Material: Steel pipe jaw, 0.5ā (12.7mm) dia, 1.25ā (31.75mm) long, 0.25ā(6.35mm) thick carbide teeth, black flux and silver copperĀ braze shims
Temperature: 1292ĀŗF (700ĀŗC)
Frequency: 300kHz
Equipment ā¢ DW-UHF-10kW induction heating system, equipped with aĀ remote workhead containing one 0.66Ī¼F capacitor
ā¢ An induction heating coil designed and developedĀ specifically for this application.
Process: A two turn rectangular helical coil is used to heat the carbideĀ and steel to 1292ĀŗF (700ĀŗC) for 4 to 5 minutes. Three brazeĀ shims control the amount of braze and the even heat allows for
a good flow of braze creating an aesthetically pleasing bond.
Results/Benefits Induction heating provides:
ā¢ Hands-free heating that involves no operator skill forĀ manufacturing
ā¢ Consistent, repeatable aesthetically pleasing brazes
ā¢ Even distribution of heating
