Recently we had the opportunity to support the ITER project in France. The ITER Tokamak is a machine meant to produce energy from the nuclear fusion, same nuclear reaction, which powers the sun and the stars.

In order to achieve an optimum part quality with short cycle times an efficient mould temperature control is mandatory. Vacuum brazing enables the production of simple and flexible tools, such as injection moulds and inserts with a conformal cooling...

Starting from simple semi-finished products, complex components can be produced cost-effectively and/or the effort for pre- and post-processing procedures can be reduced. This increases significantly the flexibility with regard to function and...

The modular design of components leads to simplified manufacturing processes and cost savings - but these are by far not all the advantages of vacuum brazing. Hard- and high-temperature vacuum brazing is a joining technology which can be used to...

When assessing its current technical state, high-temperature vacuum brazing is in no way inferior to welding. Hence, it is time to understand and appreciate this technology. The main difference between these technologies is that the base material is...

Vacuum brazing makes almost any material combination between high performance ceramics and metals possible. With the aid of the universally applicable vacuum brazing technique, any high-performance ceramic can be firmly joined to almost any metallic...

The active brazing process enables a high-strength metallurgical bond between the hard material and the tool carrier. This leads to better application properties in all applications where high mechanical and/or thermal loads occur. The need for...

Edge-sharp coatings with a precise contour against abrasive and corrosive wear. For wear protection, component surfaces can be locally coated with solid shaped bodies made of hard metals, ceramics, and diamond. Figure 1 shows a saw tooth for a chain...
