Industrial Induction Furnace

Industrial Induction Furnace

Forging Industrial Induction Furnaces are the main force of heating equipment in the forging industry, especially the die forging industry, and have become an indispensable first choice for automatic forging heating production lines. 

Why is the position of induction heating furnaces so important in the forging industry?

1. Forging is a method of processing metal mechanical forgings or forging billets under impact or pressure with the help of tools or dies. In order to reduce the striking force of the forging equipment and improve the performance index of the metal, it is necessary to heat the forging billet, and an induction heating furnace is used.

2. The shape and dimension stability of the forging billet heated by the industrial induction heating furnace is good, and the comprehensive mechanical properties are good. The obvious advantages of forgings are high toughness, reasonable fiber structure, and small performance changes between parts; the intrinsic quality of forgings is related to the processing history, which cannot be surpassed by any metal processing technology.

3. The industrial induction heating furnace has good heat penetration performance and uniform temperature. After the metal forging blank is plastically deformed, it can eliminate the internal defects of the blank, such as forging (welding) empty, compaction and loosening, carbide broken, non Metal inclusions distributed along the deformation direction, improving or eliminating component segregation, etc., and obtaining uniform and fine low-magnification and high-magnification structures.

4. Castings obtained by heating metal materials in an intermediate frequency furnace can obtain more precise dimensions and more complex shapes than forgings, but it is difficult to eliminate defects such as pores, voids, composition segregation, and non-metallic inclusions; the compressive strength of castings is strong. High, but the toughness is insufficient, and it is difficult to use under the condition of large tensile stress. The parts obtained by the machining method have high dimensional accuracy and smooth surface, but the internal flow line of the metal is often cut off, which is easy to cause stress corrosion, and the ability to withstand alternating tension and compression stress is poor.

5. Forging blanks heated by industrial induction heating furnaces have a wide range of applications. Almost all the main force-bearing parts in motion are formed by forging after heating the forging billet in an induction heating furnace, but the greater impetus for the development of induction heating furnace technology comes from the automobile manufacturing industry, the automobile manufacturing industry and later the aircraft manufacturing industry. The size and quality of forgings are getting bigger and bigger, the shape is more and more complex and fine, the material of forgings is getting wider and wider, and the forging difficulty is getting more and more difficult. This is because modern heavy industries and transportation industries pursue forged products with long service life and high reliability.

Maintenance and Maintenance of Industrial Induction Furnace

The maintenance of an industrial induction furnace can save equipment cost and improve production efficiency.

Energy saving is mainly reflected in the following three aspects:

First, whether the advanced industrial induction furnace process can effectively make the heat-treated workpiece meet its design technical requirements, but at a lower cost.

Secondly, whether the industrial induction furnace has been effectively used in the continuous production of the Suqian copper extrusion machine and other operations, the standby time of the induction furnace is shortened, and there is no additional heat loss.

Third, whether there is good communication between the operator of the industrial induction heating furnace and the production personnel, everyone can be effectively managed and organized for production.

The above three points are extremely important in the maintenance of the induction heating furnace, and are also extremely related to the operation and management of the heat treatment plant.
