Popis: “Brazing” refers to a process that joins metals together. By using a braze alloy or filler metal to unite individual pieces, a strong metallurgical bond is created without melting or changing the essential structure of the original materials. With proper technique, the connection between the metals is often stronger than the actual metals themselves, which ensures the longevity of the bond. While brazing is one of the oldest processes for joining metals, technological progress has opened the door for brazing other materials such as ceramic or glass together. Brazing is considered to be essential to many industries, including automotive, aircraft, aerospace, electrical, and more. Many brazing processes are done in a belt furnace. This article discusses the brazing process in detail, with a focus on brazing done in a belt furnace.
