Note: Press-Bonding Metal Clips Into Sealers
Objective:
To heat metal clips and press-bond them into rubber seals. The metal needs to be heated to 250°F to 350°F with a cycle time not exceeding 3 seconds
End Product:
Steel clips and rubber sealer blocks
Equipment:
Ameritherm EASYHEAT 1kW power supply including one remote heat station with one 1.2 µF capacitor using a specially designed 3-turn pancake coil
Materials:
Steel clips and rubber sealer blocks
Temperature:
250°F to 350°F
Frequency:
373 kHz
Testing:
Heating time of 1.5 seconds was attained; shorter heating times are possible due to fast response of the power supply. Bond formation is acceptable due to the even heat pattern produced through induction heating.
