What are some of the other advantages to using Induction Heating?
Fast Cycle Times – With induction heating technology, heat is produced instantly and directly within the part being heated. Thus heat can be supplied as quickly as a material will permit it, eliminating typical soak times associated with radiation or convection heat technologies. Accurate Heat Zones – Through the development of an induction coil combined with the specification of the proper power and frequency, the can isolate or pinpoint a heat-zone, small or large without affecting surrounding areas. The result is minimal distortion in part being heated, yielding higher quality production. Additional infrared temperature control devices can also be added for further control of a process. Consistent and Repeatable – Due to the development of Solid-State power supplies, the heating pattern produced by a given induction coil will be consistent from day to day, month to month. Since the induction coil is not in any contact with the part being heated and the part is being presented to the
