The Brazing Work Group is developing a process to validate the effectiveness of Brazing processes througout the entire supply chain. This will include an assessment based on best practices that will ensure quality, reliability and durability of components from Brazing processes. Providing a common assessment tool for the industry should result in reduction in variation and less warranty claims, leaks and recalls, providing a framework for improvement which will enable an organization to ensure design and product specification requirements are consistently met.
