Induction melting describes the process of melting metals into liquid form in an induction furnace in order to create workpieces. The induction furnace is based on the principle of electromagnetic induction heating, which quickly heats up the metal and transforms it into liquid form. In comparison to traditional heating equipment, which heats the container in order to cause a reaction with the material inside, the induction melting furnace directly targets the material within the induction coil.
The significant advantages of induction melting are due to its ability to achieve a clean and uniform liquid metal state, reducing the impurities found in the finished products. Moreover, induction melting is safer and more time-efficient than traditional options. Automated induction melting lines not only eliminate the potential of industrial accidents but also stabilize and effectively the entire heating process.
Induction melting is widely used in the industry, typically for casting. We offer a range of induction melting solutions that are suitable for various metals such as steel, iron, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, and other Non-ferrous metals and are able to provide the most suitable induction melting furnace according to our client's needs.
The medium frequency induction heating machine adopts solid-state IGBT frequency conversion control technologies. With these cutting-edge technologies, it has all kinds of protection control giving signals under conditions of overcurrent, water shortage, overheating, over-voltage, short circuit, and phase missing; This greatly enhances the machine's reliability. Furthermore, it provides a functional display of current, voltage, and timing, which makes it easier for users to comprehend the working conditions and provides guidance for induction coil design and capacitance control.
The medium frequency induction melting machine has other noteworthy features such as small size, lightweight, requirements of no more than sqm, convenient mobility, continuous heating ability for up to 24 hours, low power consumption, unique electromagnetic grinding capability, as well as better heating penetration and even temperature inside the melting metal. On average, the melting time is 30-50 minutes per furnace. When the furnace is fully cooled, the heating time is usually 50-60 minutes. When the furnace is hot, the heating time is cut short to 20-30 minutes.
The melting furnace has several prominent features. It is environmentally friendly and produces more uniform melting. Moreover, it utilizes intelligent control and intelligent diagnosis, with comprehensive and independent protection to ensure the safety and efficiency of the machine. In addition, it is noted for its energy-saving capabilities, which are at least 10-30% higher than traditional induction heating machines. Installing and operating the machine is also straightforward and requires no configuration. Furthermore, the precise digital control function ensures an IGBT zero-crossing switch; This renders the equipment more stable and faster than before.
VS Resistance Heated Furnace:
This furnace has high heat efficiency and melts fast. It is also small in size, which can save 30% of energy. However, the resistance and silicon carbide stocks are easy to damage.
VS Coal, Gas, and Diesel Furnace:
These kinds of furnaces can adjust the solution composition and temperature easily, and reduce the bubble of the foundry by 1/3 to 1/4 and the reject rate by 1/2 to 2/3, thereby increasing the mechanical strength of the cast. It also reduces oxidation burning and reduces pollution and noise. Furthermore, it improves the labor intensity of workers and the working conditions. Though Cast-iron crucible is used in Coal and gas furnaces, it may increase the impurities in aluminum alloy. But for induction melting, since it employs a graphite crucible, it doesn’t have such disadvantages.
VS SCR or Frequency Melting Furnace:
These furnaces can also ensure high heat efficiency and melting fast. The size is also small which can save up to 20% of energy. Additionally, the electromagnetic stirring effect is slight and hence the service life of the crucible is extended. Moreover, the frequency can be adjusted to achieve power regulation; hence the melting speed can be increased and the burning loss of material elements can be reduced. The cost of casting can also be lowered when heating non-magnetic materials like stainless steel, copper, silicon, and aluminum.
