Advantages of Dip Brazing
Dip brazing evenly heats metal assemblies in a salt bath so the filler alloy flows into every joint. The entire assembly is heated at the same time, making it possible to join multiple or hidden joints in just one step. There are numerous other advantages of dip brazing:
- Leak-tight seals. This process creates a uniform connection that exceeds the strength of the original base material, making it a go-to process in varying industries. Capillary action ensures the distribution of the filler metal into the joints.
- Lightweight assemblies. The process allows you to assemble lightweight materials without the risk of distortion. This is especially important when meeting aerospace and defense weight requirements.
- Complex geometries & hidden joints. The molten salt bath guarantees the filler alloy reaches all connections, even internal or concealed joints that can’t always be accessed using traditional welding.
H&S Manufacturing’s Dip Brazing Capabilities
At H&S Manufacturing, our aluminum dip brazing capabilities combine advanced technology, deep expertise in aluminum alloys, and uncompromising quality standards. We use these to cover a range of equipment specs and process requirements. These include:
- Bath size. Our dip brazing tanks can accommodate assemblies ranging from simple, small components to large, complex structures.
- Material compatibility. Aluminum alloys like 6061, 3003, and 5052 are often ideal for dip brazing. We also work with brass, copper, stainless steel, carbon steels, galvanized steel, and plastics.
- Brazing alloys. We use aluminum-silicon filler alloys that flow evenly into every joint, creating strong, reliable bonds without compromising the base material.
- Pre- and post-process. We can also handle machining and sheet metal work, and implement thorough cleaning after brazing, for optimal results.
Serving High-Performance Industries
At H&S Manufacturing, we serve industries that can’t compromise on precision, strength, or reliability.
Aerospace & Defense
Applications in aerospace and defense that depend on dip brazing include:
- Heatsinks & cold plates. Our dip brazing process is ideal for heatsinks and cold plates with intricate internal fin structures used in avionics and electronics.
- Structural components. Our process delivers strong, lightweight aluminum assemblies tailored for aerospace applications.
- Waveguide assemblies. We can use dip brazing to create durable, leak-proof waveguides for radar and satellite communications.
Medical
Different medical applications benefit from dip brazing, including:
- Medical equipment. Dip brazing can be used to create high-strength, leak-proof joints in medical devices such as surgical instruments and implants.
- Scientific instruments. Many laboratory instruments require hermetic seals and lightweight enclosures to protect sensitive electronics and ensure accuracy. Dip brazing provides the durability and cleanliness needed for these high-precision applications.
Versatility Across Markets
In addition to aerospace and medical applications, dip brazing is also used in other industries that push the boundaries of technology and performance.
- Automotive. Dip brazing is ideal for providing lightweight, leak-tight cooling plates.
- Electronics. This method is commonly used with heatsinks and enclosures.
- Robotics. Dip brazing is also suitable for robotic arms and automated systems.
