A steel induction furnace is an advanced solution for melting steel efficiently and consistently. It uses electromagnetic induction to heat metal directly, ensuring uniform temperature, fast melting, and energy savings.
These furnaces are widely used in scrap steel processing and the production of specialty steels like stainless steel, alloy steel, and tool steel, where precise temperature control is critical.
How It Works
- A copper induction coil carries a high-frequency alternating current (AC).
- The coil generates a magnetic field around the metal charge.
- When steel is placed inside, the magnetic field induces eddy currents.
- The metal’s resistance converts these currents into heat, melting the steel efficiently and evenly.
This method reduces energy loss and provides better temperature control compared to traditional furnaces.
Capacity and Applications
- Capacities range from 250kg, 500kg, 1,000kg, up to several tons.
- Applications include:
- Scrap steel melting: Efficiently recycle and reprocess scrap steel.
- Specialty steel production: Stainless steel, alloy steel, and tool steel.
- Casting industry: Produce billets, ingots, and cast products with precise quality.
Choosing the right capacity ensures optimized production efficiency and consistent steel quality.
