Why Induction Heating
Why Magneforce Induction
Many applications using induction heating must be set up correctly to provide satisfactory heating results. Using our Built In The USA Heat Station induction heaters and over 100 years of combined experience, Magneforce will design, fabricate, test and guarantee your heating process. Complete in house heating coil development capability enables us to fine tune and focus the heating . With in house CNC and additive manufacturing capabilities we can provide process fixtures to give you ready to use systems.
Where Is It Used
The ID of a shaft is heated for shrink fit insertion of an impeller
The heating coil is customized to evenly heat the tube and fitting for best braze
What is Induction Heating
When a metal part is inserted into a magnetic field an electrical current will be induced in the part. The resistance of the metal to the flow of current causes it to heat up.
How Does It Work
An induction power supply converts standard 50/60hz AC power to a high frequency output and delivers this energy to the heating coil.
​
​The heating coil consists of a copper winding custom formed to fit the part and can be made in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. The coil creates and focuses a magnetic field on the part where it's needed to produce the heating required.

A basic Magneforce induction heating system consists of an induction heater with matching transformer, a heating coil, some controls and a part or assembly to heat
​
Water cooling, usually in the form of a recirculating coolant system. is required for most systems. Clean, in house water can be used if available.
Operating controls, such as cycle timers, output power control, remote actuators, power control footpedal, thermocouple or infrared temperature controllers may be required, depending on the application. Many systems are controlled by interfacing with PLC of specialty machines.
​Process fixtures, hold the part(s) firmly and in the same location to insure even heating for repetitive parts. The fixture must be properly designed to prevent heating and heatsinking of fixture components, reducing heating efficiency and affecting the heating process.

Applications
Induction heating can be used whenever precise, consistent and rapid heating of metal parts is required. Heat Station heaters are currently used in Industrial, Medical and Scientific processes. These include the brazing of tools, tubes and assemblies, soldering connectors and terminals, heating inserts for hot pressing into plastic parts, shrink
fitting gears, rings and bearings. preheating for welding and molding operations, melting, heat staking, extruder barrel heating, curing epoxies, coatings and adhesives, heating catheter tipping molds, annealing, stress relieving and a variety of specialty applications. We have setup and applied thousands of heating systems. CALL TODAY.
No Charge Sample Analysis
If you have a project to heat a part or assembly and think induction might be the way to go, contact us and we can help. Our equipment may not be what you need. If it is not suitable we will let you know and tell you why not. It might be the application isn't good for induction or our equipment is not suitable due to frequency or power capability. If it is OK we would be happy to review your application
and discuss it with you. We offer no charge sample testing. We will test heat your part with a custom designed heating coil at no charge and provide you with finished samples, a process report including the model induction heater used, the heating coil, the setup and power and time settings. We can also provide a video of the sample run and thermal imaging when applicable.
