Stiefel Induction Heaters: Energy-Efficient Solutions Since 2013

Induction brazing machines utilize induction heating to join two or more base metals using a filler metal that has a lower melting point than the base materials. The heat is localized to the joint area, melting the filler metal which is then drawn into the joint by capillary action, creating a strong, clean, and reliable bond. Induction brazing is superior to torch brazing as it provides precise, repeatable, and controllable heat without an open flame, reducing oxidation and thermal distortion. It is widely used across industries such as automotive (e.g., joining tubing in air conditioning systems), aerospace (e.g., heat exchanger assemblies), and plumbing (e.g., copper pipe fittings). Stiefel Combustion's induction brazing machines can be designed for manual operation or fully automated high-production scenarios. Automated systems often include part loading/unloading, pre-placement of brazing alloy, and precise positioning of the induction coil. The result is a high-quality, flux-free joint with excellent mechanical and aesthetic properties.
