Medical Device Brazing Services
Medical device brazing is a joining process whereby a non-ferrous
filler metal and an alloy are heated to melting temperature
(above 800 degrees F) and distributed between two or more
close-fitting parts by capillary action. With medical device
brazing when the braze is at its liquid temperature, the
molten filler metal interacts with a thin layer of the base
metal, cooling to form an exceptionally strong, sealed joint
due to grain structure interaction. With medical device brazing
the joints becomes a sandwich of different layers, each metallurgically
linked to each other. The most common filler materials are
gold in color, but fillers that more closely match the color
of the base materials can be used since appearance is important
to the medical device brazing end product
