Objective Brazing several brass and copper assemblies used in water faucets
Material braze, white flux
Temperature 1350 °F 730°C
Frequency 160 or 277 kHz (coil dependant)
Equipment Power of 15kW induction heating system, remote work head with two 1μF capacitors and a 3-turn helical coil
Process Three helical coils are used separately to braze a range of provided parts. Parts are assembled with flux and a braze alloy and then heated.
The heat time varies from part to part with large parts taking less than 3 minutes and, the smaller parts heated in less than
20 seconds. After heating the parts are quench-cooled.
Results/Benefits Repeatability: the inherent precision of induction heating supports a process which is highly repeatable.
Economy: the process allows for the use of higher temperature braze alloy than a flame process
