An induction furnace is an electrical furnace in which the heat is applied by induction heating of metal. Induction furnace capacities range from less than one kilogram to one hundred tons, and are used to melt iron and steel, copper, aluminum, and precious metals.
Induction equipment can melt/heat virtually all metals and materials including, gray and ductile iron, steel, copper and copper-based alloys, aluminum, zinc, reactive metals, precious metals, silicon and graphite.
Induction heating is a smart and proven way of melting metal and glass. EFD Induction has developed solutions within a variety of areas such as precious metals, tilting furnace melting, investment casting and lab applications.
Induction heating provides a better option than furnace heating, as it delivers quick and efficient heat in forging applications. This process depends on electrical currents to generate heat within the part.
Which metals can be heated using induction?
- Copper and copper alloys.
- Brass.
- Aluminum.
- Iron.
- Steel and stainless steel.
- Tungsten.
- Chrome.
- Nickel and nickel alloys.
between 1,100 and 1,200 °C
Induction forging refers to the use of an induction heater to pre-heat metals prior to deformation using a press or hammer. Typically metals are heated to between 1,100 and 1,200 °C (2,010 and 2,190 °F) to increase their malleability and aid flow in the forging die.
There are four main types of furnaces: natural gas, oil, electric, and propane. Electric furnaces can heat the air by exposing heated elements, while other types of furnaces typically require a heat exchanger or chamber that warms the surrounding air.
