Preheating for Hard Facing

Preheating for Hard Facing


In the latest induction heating application video from THE LAB at Ambrell, a steel mandrel is preheated for a hard facing application with an Ambrell EKOHEAT® induction heating system and a custom-designed helical coil. As you can see in the video, heating the steel mandrel took just over one minute.
