Induction Annealing Steel Tube
Description
Induction Annealing Steel Tube-Copper Tubing-Pipe With High Frequency Heating Units
Objective To heat steel tubes to 2000 ยบF (1093 ยบC) in an inertย atmosphere
Material 0.1โ (2.54mm) diameter stainless steel tube
Temperature 2000 ยบF
Frequency 323 kHz
Equipment โข DW-UHF-6kW induction heating system, equipped with aย remote workhead containing one 1.0ฮผF capacitor.
โข An induction heating coil designed and developedย specifically for this application.
Process A two turn concentrator coil is used to heat the stainless steelย tube. The annealing process takes place in an inertย atmosphere to prevent oxidation. The stainless steel tube isย placed in the inert atmosphere and heats to 2000 ยบF (1093 ยบC)ย in 15 seconds to achieve the desired characteristics.
Results/Benefits Induction heating provides:
โข Fast, controllable process
โข Heat very small areas within precise production tolerances
โข Hands-free heating that involves no operator skill forย manufacturing
โข Even distribution of heating
