What does an induction heating system comprise of?
• An induction heating system comprises a basic induction power source which provides the required power output at the required power frequency, complete with matching components, an induction coil assembly, a method of material handling, and some method of water cooling. Most induction heating systems are water cooled with the exception of small, low powered units. • The methods of material handling and the induction coil arrangement are dependant entirely upon the application. The choice of induction power source is related to the application requirements and to production rate.
