Basics:
The induction heating process is a non-contact method which provides localized heating through custom-designed coils. Because the heat is transferred to the product via electromagnetic flux, there is negligible part contamination and distortion. This process allows the right amount of heat to be applied exactly where it is needed for a pre-set time, ensuring controlled and precise performance that can be easily repeated through PLC and advanced electronics.
The Advantages of Induction Heating :Induction heating has many advantages over conventional techniques, such as Convention heat, Laser technologies, Carburising and Nitriding methods.
HITECH INDUCTION offers the latest induction heating techniques to your specific requirement and application. The following are just some of the significant benefits of induction heating/hardening :
- Consistency : Accurate temperature control provides uniform results consistently, with negligible rejection.
- Improved Quality : Contact-free process induces heat in the product without having any contact with it, reducing rejections.
- Bend and Distortion : Customized process delivers heat exactly where it is needed and as rapidly as needed and precise quenching reduces Bend & Distortion.
- Increased Profits : Energy efficient process converts up to 80% of the expended energy into useful heat to save costs.
- Maximized Productivity : Instantaneous and controlled heat allows for increased production at reduced costs.
- Environmentally Friendly : Clean, non-polluting process produces no smoke, waste heat, noxious emissions or noise.
- Saving Time and Cost : Can be used for Tempering/Stress Retrieving/Annealing in Auto hardening Cycles to reduce production time, avoid extra material handling etc.
