Induction Heating Technology

Supertech Services, an authorised sales and service distributor of Miller Electric Mfg Co Ltd, USA, can provide unique Induction Heating Technology, which can save a lot of money per week during a project. Induction heating brings a part to temperature in a fraction of the time and holds the part at specified temperature. Induction heating systems employ non-contact heating. They induce heat electromagnetically rather than using a heating element in contact with a part to conduct heat, as does resistance heating. In an industrial example of induction heating, heat is induced in the part by placing it in a high-frequency magnetic field. The magnetic field creates eddy currents inside the part, exciting the part's molecules. Miller’s ProHeat 35™ is available in an air-cooled system for temperatures up to 200°C and as a liquid-cooled system for temperatures up to 780°C. ProHeat 35 features multiple outputs, four control thermocouples to ensure uniform heating, significantly faster time to temperature than conventional heating, and an extremely easy-to-use operator interface that allows the operator to program ramp and hold temperature times. It also tutors the operator to achieve maximum output from the induction coils. Applications: oil and gas pipelines, power plant erection, maintenance and repair of mining equipment, and heavy equipment constructions, etc. Benefits: compared to conventional preheating (propane or resistance heating) and stress relieving methods, induction heating by ProHeat 35 offers numerous advantages, including improved heat uniformity and quality, reduced cycle time (reduction in preheat time of 400% – from 2-1/4 hours to 30 minutes), and lower consumables costs. It is also safe, reliable and easy to use, and scores higher than alternative technologies in power efficiency and versatility. ProHeat 35 is designed to require minimal installations and set up time – about 10 minutes each, decreasing labour costs while increasing productivity.
