Abstract:
A brazing fixture for holding an ODS alloy workpiece having a joint to be brazed and a top surface and a bottom surface, the fixture comprising:an ODS alloy bottom section having a first surface formed to substantially mirror first design dimensions of said bottom surface and a first brazing cavity half extending into said bottom section from said first surface; andan ODS alloy top section having a second surface formed to substantially mirror second design dimensions of said top surface and a second brazing cavity half extending into said top section from said second surface;wherein said bottom section mates to said top section with said first surface facing said second surface such that said workpiece will be constrained to said first and second design dimensions when said workpiece is positioned between said first and second surfaces; andwherein said first and second brazing cavity halves form a brazing cavity around said joint when said bottom section mates with said top section.
