Introduction Introduction In almost all the joining processes described in previous lectures, the metals to be joined were heated to elevated temperatures by various means to cause fusion or bonding at the joint. But how to join materials that cannot withstand high temperatures, such as electronic components? What if the parts to be joined are delicate or intricate or are made of two or more materials with very different characteristics, properties, thicknesses, and cross-sections? Institut Teknologi Bandung4 Introduction, con’t Introduction, con’t Today’s lecture first describes two joining processes, brazing and soldering, which permit lower temperatures than those required for welding. In both brazing and soldering, filler metals are placed in or supplied to the joint. They are then melted using an external source of heat and, upon solidification, a strong joint results. Institut Teknologi Bandung5 Introduction, con’t Introduction, con’t Soldering temperatures are lower than those of brazing, and the strength of a soldered joint is not high. Thus brazing and soldering are arbitrarily distinguished by temperature. Institut Teknologi Bandung6 Introduction, con’t Introduction, con’t This lecture also describes adhesive bonding techniques. The ancient method of joining parts with animal glue, as is done in labeling, packaging, and bookbinding, has now developed into an important technology with wide applications in aerospace and various other industries. Institut Teknologi Bandung7 Introduction, con’t Introduction, con’t All the joints described so far are of a permanent nature. In many applications, there are situations where joined parts have to be taken apart for replacement, maintenance, repair, or adjustment. How to take apart (separating), a product without destroying the joint? If we need joints that are truly nonpermanent but are as strong as welded joints-the solution obviously is to use mechanical means, such as bolts, screws, nuts, and a variety of similar fasteners.

Effect of Joint Clearance on Strength of Effect of Joint Clearance on Strength of Brazed Joints Brazed Joints The effect of joint clearance on tensile and shear strength of brazed joints. Note that unlike tensile strength, shear strength continually decreases as the clearance increases.

Teknologi Bandung Fluxes The use of a flux is essential in brazing in order to prevent oxidation and to remove oxide films from workpiece surfaces Brazing fluxes are generally made of borax, boric acid, borates, fluorides and chlorides Wetting agents may also be added to improve both the wetting characteristics of the molten filler metal and capillary action Surfaces to be brazed must be clean and. .. filler metal and capillary action Surfaces to be brazed must be clean and free from rust, oil, and other contaminants 19 Institut Teknologi Bandung Fluxes Clean surfaces are essential to obtain the proper wetting and spreading characteristics of the molten filler metal in the joint and maximum bond strength Sand blasting may also be used to improve surface finish of faying surfaces Because they are... and was first used as far back as 3000-2000 B.C 12 Institut Teknologi Bandung Brazing There are two types of brazing processes: a that was previously described, and b braze welding (Figure b), in which the filler metal is deposited at the joint with a technique similar to oxyfuel gas welding (b) Braze welding 13 Institut Teknologi Bandung Brazing Filler metals used for brazing melt above 450 °C (840... to be joined, and the temperature is raised to melt the filler metal but not the workpieces, (Figure a) (a) Operasi Brazing 11 Institut Teknologi Bandung Brazing The molten metal fills the closely fitting space by capillary action Upon cooling and solidification of the filler metal, a strong joint is obtained Brazing comes from the word brass, an archaic word meaning to harden, and was first...
