Induction Shrinking / Stretching
The shrinking
of metal parts is a common method to connect two metal components. Here, the
receiving component is heated causing expansion. The second piece can now be
connected with the heated component (for example: rings, sleeves, shafts).
After the parts are mated, the temperature of the warmed component is reduced
and it returns back to its original size. The result is a very strong bond.
Induction heating is an efficient way to fit metal parts together. Precision parts manufacturing is easily accomplished when utilizing this method. Primary advantages: - Rapid operational readiness - More ecological than conventional systems - High reproducibility - Homogeneous process Plustherm induction systems for shrink-fitting can be used for laboratory and experimental purposes as well as production lines. Depending on the work-pieces, the heaters have an output capacity of 5-200kW. We solve all of your inductive heating problems and provide customized solutions for each. |
