Abstract

In a method of brazing directionally solidified or monocrystalline components, the brazing deposit and the directionally solidified or monocrystalline component are moved through a heated zone. In this zone, the temperature applied by a heating system is greater than the liquidus temperature of the brazing alloy and less than the local incipient melting temperature of the component. A thermal gradient is applied between the component and the brazing deposit.
