Induction furnace is an electric furnace that utilizes the induction heating effect of materials to heat or melt them. The main components of an induction furnace include sensors, furnace body, power supply, capacitors, and control system.
The main components of an induction furnace include sensors, furnace body, power supply, capacitors, and control system.
Under the action of the alternating electromagnetic field in the induction furnace, eddy currents are generated inside the material to achieve heating or melting effects. Under the stirring effect of this alternating magnetic field, the composition and temperature of the materials in the furnace are relatively uniform. The forging heating temperature can reach 1250 ℃, and the melting temperature can reach 1650 ℃.
Induction furnaces can not only heat or melt in the atmosphere, but also in vacuum and protective atmospheres such as argon and neon to meet special quality requirements. Induction furnaces have outstanding advantages in the heat transfer or melting of soft magnetic alloys, high resistance alloys, platinum group alloys, heat-resistant, corrosion-resistant, wear-resistant alloys, and pure metals. Induction furnaces are usually divided into induction heating furnaces and melting furnaces.
