INDUCTION HEATING

INDUCTION HEATING

1. First, we have to say what is induction heating, starts with a coil of conductive material (for example, copper). As current flows through the coil, a magnetic field in and around the coil is produced. The ability of the magnetic field to work depends on the coil design as well as the amount of current flowing through the coil.

   • Which are pros and cons of this technology?
     • PROS -Maximum productivity -Energetic efficiency -Quality of the product -Process control and automation -Green energy
     • CONS -Complex -Poor adaptability -Difficult to guarantee the quality of some complex shape workpieces (needs to have many coils in different shapes)
   • Which uses did you find for induction heating?
     • It have many uses for example: harden your low carbon steel parts with the induction heater, Induction Cooktop like for making pancakes, Induction Kiln for Melting Metals, Induction Solder Pot, Loosening Seized Bolts and Hardware, Induction Levitation and you can use the induction with batteries.
