Induction Brazing Aluminum to Aluminum Tube
Objective
Induction brazing of two aluminum pipes
Equipment
DW-UHF-6KW-III handheld induction brazing heater
Materials
Šluminum to aluminum tube
Flared at interface 0.25ā (6.35mm)
Brazed to steel tube 0.19ā OD (4.82mm)
Power:Ā 6kW
Temperature: 1600Ā°F (871Ā°C)
Time:Ā 3sec
Results and Conclusions:
Induction heating provides:
- Strong durable joints
- Selective and precise heat zone, resulting in less part distortion and joint stress than welding
- More consistent results and suitability for large volume production, without the need for batch processing
- Safer than flame brazing
