Induction Billet Heating Forging Machine

Induction forging refers to the use of an induction heater to pre-heat metals prior to deformation using a press or hammer. Typically metals are heated to between 1,100 and 1,200 °C (2,010 and 2,190 °F) to increase their malleability and aid flow in the forging die.Induction heater units incorporate high frequency generators for non-contact heating of metal using electromagnetic induction. When AC is applied to a coil surrounding the work (metal), a magnetic field is generated by the current flowing in the coil, and induced loss (hysteresis loss) is generated causing a heat.
