Note: Braze medical device assembly to 1400 °F (760 °C)

LSR# 37555

Objective:

Induction is used to braze a collection of customer-supplied copper and brass fittings to 1400 °F (760 °C) to facilitate a medical device assembly.

End Product:

medical device assembly

Equipment:

Ambrell EASYHEAT 10.0 kW induction heating system, equipped with a remote work head containing (2) 1.0 μF capacitors.

Materials:

A range of customer-supplied copper and brass fittings, solder, flux

Temperature:

1400 °F (760 °C)

Frequency:

250 kHz

Testing:

A custom-designed multi-turn helical coil was built to generate the required heating for the application. Initial tests were conducted to optimize the power delivered to the part. Once a satisfactory heat pattern was achieved in the time frame allowed, samples were run at multiple different settings.

Benefits:

  • Consistent and repeatable results

  • No flame process

  • Faster process time
