What is the application of vacuum furnace in brazing?
Vacuum furnaces are widely used in the field of brazing. Here are some of the main applications:
1. Aerospace
- **Parts manufacturing and repair**
- **High-performance structural parts connection**: Key parts such as aircraft engine blades, turbine disks, combustion chambers, etc. often use vacuum brazing to connect parts of different materials, such as brazing high-temperature alloys with ceramic-based composite materials to meet the working requirements of the engine under high temperature, high pressure and high stress environment. At the same time, rocket nozzles, fuel tanks and other parts also use vacuum brazing technology to ensure the strength and sealing of the structure.
- **Parts repair**: For some high-value and damaged parts in the aerospace field, such as cracks, wear and other defects on turbine blades, vacuum brazing can be used to repair them, extend their service life and reduce costs. Brazing repairs using special materials such as pre-sintered preforms (PSP) can effectively restore the performance of the parts.
- **Complex structure component production**: There are many components with complex shapes and internal structures in aerospace equipment, such as satellite antenna reflectors, avionics housings, etc. Vacuum brazing can achieve one-time connection and molding of these complex structures, avoiding deformation and stress concentration problems that may be caused by traditional welding methods, and ensuring the accuracy and reliability of components.
2. Automobile industry
- **Automobile parts manufacturing**:
- **Heat exchanger production**: The internal pipes and fins of automobile radiators, air conditioning condensers, evaporators and other heat exchangers are usually made of copper or aluminum. Vacuum brazing is an ideal connection method. It can ensure the sealing and thermal conductivity of the welded joints, improve the heat exchange efficiency, and reduce the corrosion and leakage problems that may occur in traditional welding methods.
- **Engine component connection**: Some of the components of automobile engines, such as cylinder heads, pistons, and valves, are also connected using vacuum brazing. For example, the welding of the plate-fin oil cooler core on a diesel engine can ensure the performance and reliability of the cooler and improve the working efficiency and life of the engine by using vacuum brazing.
- **Electronic system welding**: Vacuum brazing technology is also used in the welding of electronic components such as circuit boards, sensors, connectors, etc. in automotive electronic control systems. The vacuum environment can avoid oxidation and impurity pollution, ensure the welding quality and performance stability of electronic components, and improve the reliability and safety of automotive electronic systems.
3. Electronic industry field
- **Semiconductor device packaging**: In the semiconductor manufacturing process, vacuum brazing is used for lead bonding, tube shell packaging and other links in chip packaging. It can achieve high-precision and high-reliability connections, ensure the electrical performance and sealing performance of semiconductor devices, and prevent the impact of the external environment on the chip. For example, in the packaging of power semiconductor devices, vacuum brazing can effectively dissipate heat and improve the power density and reliability of the device.
- **Circuit board assembly**: Vacuum brazing technology is sometimes used for the installation and connection of electronic components on printed circuit boards (PCBs). Especially for some high-frequency and high-speed circuit boards, vacuum brazing can reduce oxidation and impurities in solder joints, reduce signal transmission loss, and improve the performance and stability of circuit boards.
4. Energy field
- **Solar industry**: In the manufacture of solar panels, vacuum brazing is used to connect solar cells and conductive strips. It can ensure the electrical connection performance and stability between cells and improve the conversion efficiency and reliability of solar panels. At the same time, in the manufacture of solar collectors, vacuum brazing can also be used to connect components such as collector tubes and absorber plates.
- **Nuclear energy industry**: Nuclear fuel elements in nuclear power plants, structural components inside reactors, etc., have extremely high requirements for welding quality and safety. Vacuum brazing can be performed in a strict vacuum environment, avoiding the influence of impurities and gases in the air on the welded joints, and ensuring the safe operation of nuclear facilities.
5. Machinery manufacturing field
- **Tool and mold manufacturing**: Tools and molds in mechanical processing, such as carbide tools and stamping molds, often use vacuum brazing to connect carbide blades or other wear-resistant materials to the base material. This can improve the hardness, wear resistance and service life of tools and molds, and reduce production costs.
- **Precision machinery parts connection**: For some high-precision mechanical parts, such as gyroscopes, aviation instruments, etc., vacuum brazing can ensure the accuracy and quality of the welded joints, avoid deformation and dimensional deviation that may be caused by traditional welding methods, and meet the working requirements of precision machinery.
