Vacuum Brazing
Metal joining process offering clean and strong joint adhesion. Braze material alloys with parent metal making for joint strength on parity and often superior to welding. Avoids HAZ (heat affected zone) weakness associated with welding. Dissimilar metals with tenacious oxide layers such as titanium easily joined. mptech engineers have 30+ years of experience brazing exotic alloys such as molybdenum, Kovar, copper alloys, stainless steel and metallised alumina ceramic.
