Vacuum heat treatment and brazing. The process of heat treating within the vacuum environment means the component comes out clean after processing and ideal for finished machined components.
The components are put into the furnace cold and evacuated, the heating process is started and because it is in vacuum there is no oxidation even at elevated temperatures, at the end of the process inert gas is used to cool.
Brazing can be assembled and pasted (in jigs if required) and processed in the same clean environment resulting in clean and reproducible joints.
Electron Beam Welding. The machine consists of two parts. The chamber where the component is manipulated and the gun where the welding beam is generated.
Vacuum heat treatment and brazing. The process of heat treating within the vacuum environment means the component comes out clean after processing and ideal for finished machined components.
Helium Leak Detecting. This a non destructive testing process useful for checking leak tightness after electron beam welding or vacuum brazing.
Metallagraphic inspection. Facilities to section a welded assembly for weld depth and profile examination.
