Medical Instrument Brazing
Applied Thermal Provides Medical Instrument Brazing Services
Applied Thermal Technologies, Inc. provides medical instrument brazing nationwide. Applied Thermal also provides bright annealing services, sintering services, and precipitation hardening services. Applied Thermal began in 1992 to service the medical and specialty products industries in Northern Indiana and has since expanded nationally.
Brazing is one of the most effective ways to join delicate medical instruments. Vacuum brazing is superior to welding because it provides joints with high integrity and allows small, delicate parts to be crafted with superior strength. Brazing is accomplished by placing a filler metal with a lower melting point than the base metals in between the pieces to be joined. The pieces are then heated to the melting point of the filler metal, which joins the base metals through capillary action.
Applied Thermal provides vacuum furnace brazing using only high quality furnaces. Our vacuum furnaces can reach temperatures to 2800 degrees F and can have vacuum levels to 10-6 Torr, with all metal hot zones and extremely rapid cooling. Vacuum brazing allows many medical instruments to be brazed at once, increasing efficiency!
Brazing is used in the aerospace, medical, military and automotive industries. Applied Thermal Technologies, Inc. provides brazing services to all of these industries, but specializes in medical instrument brazing. Applied Thermal is also NADCAP accredited, a great reason for any business to choose Applied Thermal Technologies, Inc. for all of their heat treating needs. Contact us today for more information!
