Applied Thermal Provides Medical Instrument Brazing Services
Applied Thermal Technologies, Inc. is a metal processing company that 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 safest and most effective ways to join delicate medical instruments and equipment. Vacuum brazing is superior to welding because it creates clean, flux-free joints and provides high integrity and strength. Brazing also 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 furnace brazing often uses slow heating and cooling cycles, which increases the safety and effectiveness of the procedure. Vacuum furnace brazing also allows many medical instruments to be brazed at once, increasing efficiency.
Brazing is commonly used in the aerospace and medical industries, as well as in military and automotive applications. 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!
