UltraFlex Power Technologies, a leading manufacturer of digitally controlled induction heaters, recently demonstrated the time- and energy-efficient process of induction brazing in hydrogen environments. This breakthrough solution can help customers achieve increased productivity, enhanced brazing quality, improved energy efficiency, and heightened process safety.

The trial was conducted with five different tube samples provided by a potential customer who sought to replace their old induction heating equipment. The brazing process was conducted in a hydrogen environment using a range of high-power, CW, and pulse traveling wave tubes (TWT).

UltraFlex engineers suggested using a 5-15 kW induction heater from the UltraFlex UltraHeat W Series. UltraHeat W are advanced, cost-effective systems featuring adaptive digital phase control and a wide frequency range. The induction heatin g process employed a 4-turn custom induction coil to heat the samples.

The tests revealed significant reductions in heat cycle times compared to the customer's existing solution, ranging from 27 seconds for the first sample down to just 2 seconds for the last three samples. Using a 10 kW power supply and a custom induction coil, UltraFlex was able to achieve efficient heating cycles for the customer's application.
