INDUCTION HEATING
Induction starts with a coil of conductive material (for example, copper). As current flows through the coil, a magnetic field in and around the coil is produced. The ability of the magnetic field to do work depends on the coil design as well as the amount of current flowing through the coil.
The direction of the magnetic field depends on the direction of current flow, so an alternating current through the coil will result in a magnetic field changing in direction at the same rate as the frequency of the alternating current. 60Hz AC current will cause the magnetic field to switch directions 60 times a second. 400kHz AC current will cause the magnetic field to switch 400,000 times a second.
When a conductive material, a work piece, is placed in a changing magnetic field (for example, a field generated with AC), voltage will be induced in the work piece (Faraday’s Law). The induced voltage will result in the flow of electrons: current! The current flowing through the work piece will go in the opposite direction as the current in the coil. This means that we can control the frequency of the current in the work piece by controlling the frequency of the current in the coil.
As current flows through a medium, there will be some resistance to the movement of the electrons. This resistance shows up as heat (The Joule Heating Effect). Materials that are more resistant to the flow of electrons will give off more heat as current flows through them, but it is certainly possible to heat highly conductive materials (for example, copper) using an induced current. This phenomenon is critical for inductive heating.

THE WORKING PRINCIPLE:
Induction heated products are not relying on convection and radiation for the delivery of heat to the product surface. Instead, heat is generated in the surface of the product by the flow of current. The heat from the product surface is then transferred through the product with thermal conduction. The depth to which heat is generated directly using the induced current depends on something called the electrical reference depth.
The electrical reference depth depends greatly on the frequency of the alternating current flowing through the work piece. Higher frequency current will result in a shallower electrical reference depth and a lower frequency current will result in a deeper electrical reference depth. This depth also depends on the electrical and magnetic properties of the work piece.

1. Heating (hot forging, hot fitting and smelting)
Hot forging aims to fabricate the work pieces of certain temperature (different materials require different temperatures) into other shapes through forging press with the help of punch press, forging machine or other equipments, for instances, hot extrusion of watch case, watch flan, handle, mold accessory, kitchen and table ware, art ware, standard part, fastener, fabricated mechanical part, bronze lock, rivet, steel pin and pin.
Hot fitting refers to the connection of different metals or metals with nonmetals through the heating based on the principle of hot expansion or hot smelting, for instances, embedded welding of copper core of computer radiator with aluminum sheet and speaker web, compound of steel and plastic tube, sealing of aluminum foil (tooth paste peel), motor rotor and sealing of tubular electric heating element.
Smelting mainly aims to melt the metal into liquid by using the high temperature, which is mainly applicable to the smelting of iron, steel, copper, aluminum, zinc as well as various noble metals.
