Induction Bonding Rubber To Steel
Description
Induction Bonding Rubber To Steel With High Frequency Heating System
Objective To bond rubber gaskets to the top and bottom of a steel gasĀ tank assembly.
Material Flat and round rubber gaskets, steel gas tank assembly
Temperature 300 to 350Ā°F(148.9-176.7Ā°C)
Frequency 200Ā kHz for the flat gasket; 231 kHz for the round gasket
Equipment ā¢ DW-UHF-10kW induction heating system equipped with aĀ remote workhead containing two 1.25 Ī¼F capacitors forĀ a total of 0.625 Ī¼F
ā¢ An induction heating coil designed and developedĀ specifically for this application.
Process Two two-turn pancake coils are specially contoured to the theĀ shape of the steel assembly to produce uniform heat in theĀ gasket areas. The gaskets are positioned over the joint areas.
Power is applied for 6.5 seconds to reach the bondingĀ temperature of 320Ā°F (160Ā°C).
Results/Benefits Induction heating provides:
ā¢ Repeatable, rapid & accurate heating cycles
ā¢ Reduced process time
ā¢ Even distribution of heat
