Morgan Technical Ceramics’ Wesgo/Duramic business offers custom alumina fixtures designed to isolate and insulate metal components during high-temperature brazing processes. The fixtures are suited for brazing medical and laser industry components, high electrical field devices and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) equipment.
The flexible fixtures are designed with both simple and intricate features, including small-diameter holes, and they can be machined to tight tolerances. Cleanliness is ensured through a specially designed air firing process, the company says. Also, during the brazing process, thermal expansion of the fixture is matched to that of the alumina insulator used for ceramic-to-metal seals.
Workholding solutions can take on infinite forms and all would be correct to some degree. Follow these tips to help optimize custom workholding solutions.
Moving to five-axis machining enabled this shop to dramatically reduce setup time and increase lights-out capacity, but success relied on the right combination of workholding and automation.
