Why Induction Heating Is Essential in Aerospace Manufacturing
Surface Hardening for Maximum Fatigue Resistance
Aerospace components operate under extreme environmental and mechanical conditions and must withstand wear, vibration, and fatigue stresses. CEIA USA induction systems provide precise surface hardening processes for landing gear shafts, turbine discs, actuators, and motor housings, enhancing component service life without compromising dimensional tolerances.
Copper Brazing for Critical Joints
Our induction solutions are optimized for copper brazing of aerospace fuel lines, hydraulic manifolds, and heat exchangers. This technique ensures leak-proof, oxidation-resistant joints compliant with stringent aerospace specifications, while minimizing post-process cleaning requirements and distortion risks.
Stress Relieving and Annealing
CEIA induction heating delivers controlled stress relieving and annealing treatments for welded or machined components, mitigating residual stresses and preventing crack formation in engine mounts, structural frames, and composite support assemblies.
Shrink Fitting for Precision Assembly
During assembly of high-precision components such as bearings, stators, and actuators, induction heating facilitates accurate shrink fitting without the application of mechanical force, ensuring alignment accuracy, process repeatability, and operational reliability.
