Without a concentrator, the mag- netic flux would spread around the coil or current-carrying conductor and link with the electrically conductive surroundings (auxiliary equipment, metal supports, tools, and fixtures, for example). The concentrator forms a magnetic path to channel the coil’s main magnetic flux in a well-defined area outside the coil. Click here to learn [...]

Electromagnetic (EM) forces play the major part in many modern technologies. Motors, magneto-hydro-dynamic (MHD) seals, electromagnetic pumps, levitators, electrical bearings, and springs are some of the modern technologies in which EM forces play a leading role. In some applications, EM forces can reach tremendous values. For example, thanks to a capability to develop incredibly large [...]

Magnetic flux concentrators (also called flux intensifiers, diverters, or flux controllers) are made from high permeability, low-power-loss materials. They are used in induction heat treating applications in a manner similar to that of magnetic cores in power transformers. Article concentrates on effect of magnetic flux concentrators on life of induction coils. Click here to read [...]

Magnetic flux concentrators (also called flux intensifiers, diverters, or controllers) are made from high-permeability, low-power-loss materials. They are routinely used in induction heat treating applications in a manner similar to that of magnetic cores in power transformers. This article presents basic information about magnetic flux concentrator materials, its limitations and advantages, and provides design and [...]

VALERY RUDNEV, FASM | WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 29 | 2 P.M. EST Gain insight into the intricacies of fabricating long-lasting inductors. Discover the causes and prevention methods of premature coil [...]

Induction hardening steel to austenitic temperatures can result in temper back, or annealing of adjacent areas of the material that have been hardened previously. This is particularly important in the induction hardening of crankshafts, camshafts, gears and critical components. This publication discusses above mentioned effect along with some other important features of induction hardening and [...]

Magnetic flux concentrators (also called flux intensifiers, diverters, or controllers) are made from high-permeability, low-power-loss materials. They are routinely used in induction heat treatment applications in a manner similiar to that of magnetic cores in power transformers. There are three traditional functions of flux concentrators in induction hardening; (a) providing a selective heating of certain [...]
