Research on the Process of Improving the Welding Quality of Waveguide Components without Flange
Waveguide without flange is a new type of waveguide design method,which uses hoops to connect waveguide components and is formed through brazing.It has good weight and space reduction characteristics,and has great advantages for high-throughput communication satellites that are sensitive to weight and size requirements.However,waveguide without flange components have high requirements for weld seam adhesion and component size accuracy,making welding difficult,resulting in a low qualification rate in actual production and processing.The purpose of this article is to introduce a method to improve the welding qualification rate of flangeless waveguide components.Analyze the factors affecting the soldering rate and dimensional accuracy of the welds of flangeless waveguide components,optimize the clamp and waveguide section port structures,formulate the thermal calibration process after welding of the waveguide components,improve the soldering rate of the waveguide welds and the shape and size accuracy of the waveguide components,and improve the qualification rate of waveguide component welding processing for flange-free waveguide components,so that the weld strength and dimensional accuracy of waveguide components meet the requirements of the highly integrated development of satellite payloads.
