Induction brazing - Key features and benefits

Induction brazing can join a wide range of metals, even ferrous to non-ferrous. Induction brazing is precise and quick. Only narrowly defined areas are heated, leaving adjacent areas and materials unaffected. Correctly brazed joints are strong, leak-proof and corrosion resistant. They are also very neat, usually requiring no further milling, grinding or finishing. Induction brazing is ideal for integrating into production lines.

induction only works on ferrus material, copper is not magnetic, try a copper or aluminium pot
on an induction cook top, does not work.

@Robert Kattner That is absolutely not true. it works on any conductor. the difference is that iron has more electrical resistance than the low resistance metals like copper or Aluminum they also conduct heat better so while a spot is being heated the heat is also being conducted away from the heated area. so the latter need more energy or a higher frequency and take longer to heat. it is just simply I^2*R. induction heating of Ferrous metals is more prevalent because it gets quicker results. in the video he showed copper piping being heated.

well kiss the torch set good bye.

[@johnconrad5487]

the torch set is not going away so soon. it is a simple and effective way of heating and cutting. even the simple Chinese ZVS induction heaters need a big power supply to power it. so they sell the oscillator for $30 but you need a $200 current limited power supply to power it. Not very cheap.
