induction hardening steel handheld stamps
Objective
Induction hardening various size ends of handheld marking stamps.
The area to be hardened is 3/4โ (19mm) up the shank.
Material : Steel stamps 1/4โ (6.3mm), 3/8โ (9.5mm), 1/2โ (12.7mm) and 5/8โ (15.8mm) square
Temperature :1550 ยบF (843 ยบC)
Frequency 99 kHz
Equipment โข DW-HF-45kW induction heating system, equipped with a remote workhead containing eight 1.0ยตF capacitors for a total of 2.0ยตF
โข An induction heating coil designed and developed specifically for this application.
Induction Hardening Process:
A two turn channel coil is used to cover the range of steel stamps being heated. The 5/8โ steel stamp is heated for 60 seconds to reach 1550 ยบF (843 ยบC) and the desired hardness. Smaller parts will also heat easily.
Results/Benefits
Induction heating provides:
โข Faster process time and production rates
โข Hands-free heating that involves no operator skill for manufacturing
โข Controlled precise application of heat
