Induction heating is widely used to heat metals prior to hot forming including forging, upsetting, rolling, extrusion, and other methods. Billets are heated either in cut lengths or continuously and are forged in presses, hammers, or upsetters, or are extruded. Steel components by far represent the majority of hot-formed billets, although other materials including titanium, [...]

Transistorized induction heating power supplies offer many advantages over equipment which uses older technologies. These power supplies are much smaller and can often be mounted close to the heating coil. Interconnection bus or cable losses can be virtually eliminated. Overall system efficiency is generally higher for transistorized power supplies which means lower electric power and [...]
