Bonding Steel Into Rubber With Induction Heater
Description
Bonding Steel Into Rubber With Induction Heater
Objective To heat metal clips and press-bond them into rubber seals.
The metal needs to be heated to 250ยฐF to 350ยฐF with a cycleย time not exceeding 3 seconds
Material Steel clips and rubber sealer blocks
Temperature 250ยฐF to 350ยฐF
Frequency 400ย kHz
Equipment DW-UHF-4.5kW power supply including oneย remote heat station with one 1.2 ฮผF capacitor using a speciallyย designed 3-turn pancake coil
Process As illustrated below
Results Heating time of 1.5 seconds was attained; shorter heatingย times are possible due to fast response of the power supply.
Bond formation is acceptable due to the even heat patternย produced through induction heating.
