A client came to THE LAB at Ambrell looking to braze carbide cutting tips to drill bits ranging in size from 0.5" to 1.5" (12.7 to 38.1 mm) in diameter. The brazing takes place at 1900 °F (1038 °C) and was done in 11 seconds for the 0.5" diameter bit and 39 seconds for the 1.5" (38.1 mm) diameter bit. The client's objectives include decreasing the brazing times, especially for the larger drill bits. Repeatability must also be adequate. 

A client came to THE LAB at Ambrell looking to design a process to heat steel shafts for forming to manufacture medical tools. The client hadn't been using an alternative heating method, so this was a new application for them. The parts were stainless steel (magnetic and non magnetic) and nickel alloy and they needed to heat them to 800 °F (427 °C) for forming.
