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 250Ā°F to 350Ā°F with a cycleĀ time not exceeding 3 seconds
Material Steel clips and rubber sealer blocks
Temperature 250Ā°F to 350Ā°F
Frequency 400Ā kHz
Equipment DW-UHF-4.5kW power supply including oneĀ remote heat station with one 1.2 Ī¼F capacitor using a speciallyĀ designed 3-turn pancake coil
Process As illustrated below
Results Heating time of 1.5 seconds was attained; shorter heatingĀ times are possible due to fast response of the power supply.
Bond formation is acceptable due to the even heat patternĀ produced through induction heating.
