Customised energy source for perfect induction heating

“Customised” is the key word when it comes to delivering a perfect production solution in plant and machinery manufacture. Each technology is to a large extent individually tailored to the customer’s environment, guaranteeing a highly efficient, optimally configured process. Induction heating, especially, is one technology that must be “customised”, because the quality of the procedure depends on a whole range of very specific details in the user’s application. The generator, being the energy source, plays an important role in this, as the experts at Emag subsidiary eldec, based in Dornstetten/Germany, know very well. They have been developing a wide variety of generators for more than 30 years, including many customised models in their “Custom Line“. Their approach is to engineer all the resonant- circuit components in conjunction with the control architecture to form a customised product, which provides induction heating with high efficiency, controlled application of energy, and stable processes. In order to make this process successful, close collaboration with the customer is required throughout the entire development process of the generator.
