hardening Induction coil

Whenever someone is talking about induction heating, reference is often made to the phenomenon of skin effect.1 Skin effect is considered a fun- damental property of induction heating, representing a nonuniform distribution of an alternating current within…

solid state technology of Induction heating

Most existing annealing systems utilize multi-turn pancake style coils and are powered by large, relatively inefficient vacuum tube power supplies. The output is often inconsistent and constant adjustments are needed to maintain product quality. The IHM se…

Induction hardening gear

In recent years, gear manufacturers have gained additional knowledge about how technology can be used to produce quality parts. The application of this knowledge has resulted in gears that are quieter, lighter, and lower cost, and have an increased load-ca…

melt refractory metals with Induction heating

In the Ail-Union Scientific-Research Tube Institutes industrial induction electric furnaces heated to 2000-2300C, cylindrical billets of high-melting alloys are placed on refractory supports. To select materials for the supports which do not react with mol…

Induction heating for surface triggering styrene polymerization

Titanium and its alloys present high interests for technological applications due to their high resistance corrosion, mechanical properties and biocompatibility [1-5]. For example, titanium is largely used as orthopedic metallic implant [6]. In addition, T…

Induction heat staking inserting metal into plastic

Basics of Metal-to-Plastic BondingSince steel, brass and aluminum are the materials of choice for metal inserts for plastic bonding, let us look at the relative merits of each material and see how each characteristic effects the ability of the material to …
