A method for bonding components of a device, such as an x-ray tube, is disclosed. The method enables a secure bond to be formed between two or more components without the use of fusion welding or furnace heating techniques, which input excessive quantities of heat into the components to be joined, resulting in heat-related component failure. In one embodiment, surfaces defining an interface between first and second components are cleaned to remove any oxidation. The interface is then locally heated by an electric arc provided by an arc welding torch. Heat that is input by the arc into the interface region is not sufficient to melt the components. Then, a braze material is introduced into the interface. Heat absorbed by the components in the interface region is then transferred to the braze material, which melts and fills the interface region to bond the first and second components together.
