Abstract
A process including local heating of a brazing point in order to remove an integrally brazed component from a structural part is provided. The brazing point joins a metal sheet in the interior of a cavity to a structural part. The process makes the removal of the metal sheet from the cavity much easier compared to the existing mechanical removal. A plasma source or an induction source may be used for heating the filler metal.
