A Custom Systematic Approach from Paste Selection to Equipment to Expert Technical Support
Screen printing is a process where brazing paste is forced through a fine screen to transfer paste to a part. The screen acts as a stencil that only transfers brazing paste to the desired areas of the part. In the process, a squeegee passes over the screen stencil both forcing the paste through and preventing the waste of excess material. The stencil allows for the printing of complex patterns on the base material being brazed.
Screen Printing Applications
Repeatability
Screen printing is a tuned and automated process, resulting in high process consistency.
Metering Capabilities
Thicknesses possible of 50 to 600 μm (0.002” to 0.02”).
Automation
Screen printing can be part of an automated loading system – the only manual process is maintenance and reloading alloy.
High Throughput
Stenciling allows for braze application in complex shapes that would take much longer with dispensed paste or other methods.
