Note: Heating Steel parts for hot heading
Objective:
Heating steel parts to 1900ºF (1038ºC)
End Product:
Steel part
Equipment:
- Ambrell 3.0 kW induction heating system, equipped with a remote workhead containing one 0.66µF capacitor.
- An induction heating coil, designed and developed specifically for this application.
Materials:
Steel parts with 7/16” (11.11mm) OD and ceramic piece
Temperature:
1900 ºF (1038ºC)
Frequency:
440 kHz
Testing:
A four-turn helical coil with ceramic insert is used to heat a 0.75” (19mm) section of the part to 1900ºF (1038ºC) for 7.5 seconds. A ceramic piece is so the part does not come in contact with the coil.
Benefits:
-
Hands-free heating that involves no operator skill for manufacturing
-
Direct application of the heat on the work piece with precision and consistency
-
Even distribution of heating
-
Low pressure and minimal residual part stress
