Benefits for using induction to heat metal:
Low Operating Costs
Induction generates heat directly within each metal. No energy is wasted heating ambient air. This, together with precise power controllability, makes induction extremely energy efficient.
High productivity
Induction heating is fast, capable of heating to high temperature in seconds. Throughput is enhanced by the use of automated loaders, feeders and extractors.
Improved Quality
Induction ensures uniform through-heating for each invididual workpiece. This contributes to excellent grain flow characteristics in each forged metal. Also induction’s extremely rapid temperature increases result in minimal scaling and surface defects, which in turn contribute to longer die life.
Flexibility
Modern induction heating systems feature quick and easy coil changeovers, whcih realize to heat different size and shape workpiece.
