Induction heating is becoming increasingly popular in industrial production compared to traditional oven processes. This highly efficient process is based on the generation of eddy currents in electrically conductive materials, which generates targeted heat directly in the workpiece - quickly, precisely and energy-efficiently.
A key objective when using induction is to concentrate the heating exclusively on the target material. However, undesirable side effects, such as the inductive heating of holders, guides or surrounding components, can jeopardize process reliability, shorten the service life of components or impair precision.
The solution: non-conductive, high-temperature resistant materials. Components made of technical ceramics (e.g. from DOCERAM) or insulating high-performance composites (e.g. from DOTHERM or ISOCOS) are electrically non-conductive and therefore ideal for use in induction systems.
Your advantages in the field of induction technology:
No heating due to induction fields
Thermally and mechanically resilient
Durable, wear-resistant and dimensionally stable
Chemically resistant to process media
Typical applications include mounting elements, positioning pins, guides and insulating plates that are located close to the induction area and must remain absolutely temperature-stable and electrically neutral.
Materials from MEGATRON AG provide industrial companies with reliable solutions for precise, selective and trouble-free process control during induction heating.
