Abstract
A method and apparatus for induction brazing wherein the induction coil's power is controlled by a closed loop temperature controller which is provided a temperature signal from a temperature sensor located proximate the brazed joint. Power is supplied to the induction coil until temperature reaches a specific set point corresponding to the desired brazing temperature of the alloy.
