What Is Brass Welding?
Brass welding involves the process and technology used to weld brass, an alloy of zinc and copper. This alloy is known for its high electrical conductivity and susceptibility to oxidation.
Welding brass requires advanced skills and resources due to challenges such as the need for higher electrical currents, the risk of voids or cracks, and potential defects caused by oxide films.
Diverse welding methods are used for brass, including resistance welding with electrodes and current, brazing, TIG welding with inert gas to prevent oxidation, and laser welding. The compatibility of laser welding with brass depends on the specific equipment, necessitating verification of specifications. Additionally, precise power control in resistance welding is critical to avoid the dispersal of molten material.
