The late Robert Peaslee's tradition continues with the return of the brazing school. The school will be held at Wall Colmonoy's Brazing Engineering Center at Wall Colmonoy Aerobraze Division in Cincinnati. Our Brazing Engineering Center provides engineering services and training, as well as offering new practical experience on the shop floor!

For over 60 years, Wall Colmonoy engineers have gained practical experience on actual problems in brazing plants around the world. Knowledge and practical application will be taught by the company's industry-leading brazing experts.

The Modern Furnace Brazing School will allow you to apply workable solutions to your brazing needs. In fact, bring your brazing questions to the seminar.

Seminars will be on the following topics: brazing technology, definitions, overview and joint design,  diffusion mechanism and metallurgical reactions between base and filler metal, overview of brazing atmosphere, evaluation and quality control of atmosphere, types of furnaces, heating methods and furnace controls, a detailed look at various nickel-based braze filler metals, brazing aids, and their use and application, reviews of fundamental pre- and after- brazing cleaning, assembly, fixture, brazing cycles, and other brazing processes, inspection methods and process controls, and actual applications and case studies. The school will also provide practical experience on the shop floor for: pre-cleaning, blasting, selecting fixture, setting the furnace cycle, examining the brazed parts, filler metal application methods, screen printing/stencil, NicroSpray System, roller coating, powder, paste dispensing systems, and transfer tape.
