Induction Forging

Application Notes

Improve your forging process without flame! Induction heating for forging focuses energy in your part only. You don't need a torch or a costly batch or furnace process. Forge your materials in a repeatable, precise flameless process.

Popular Induction Forging Notes

Forming a Magnetic Steel Part

Induction heated the part to forming temperature more rapidly than a torch. Induction targets the precise portion of the part that requires heating every time.

Forging a magnetic steel rod

Testing determined that the magnetic steel rod heated to required temperature within 1.5 seconds with an EASYHEAT LI induction heating system.

Preheating steel rods for forging in a fastener manufacturing process

The client targeted an aggressive cycle time, achieve thanks to our process design and the efficiency of induction heating; fast heating means greater manufacturing throughput

Forging rods of various materials and dimensions

Each of the rods were placed into the coil and heated. They achieved the targeted temperature in 30-40 seconds. The coil was designed for a 5” (127 mm) heat zone.

Preheating a billet for forging

The client needed to improve the cycle time of their gas furnace, and by preheating it prior to insertion into the furnace, time was saved and the client didn’t have to invest in doubling the size of their furnace.

Preheating a brass assembly for forging blanks

The client was using a competitor’s system, and it was heating the assembly at a slower rate. They needed to increase their production rate, which this solution was able to achieve.

Preheating steel rods for forging in a fastener manufacturing process

The client targeted an aggressive cycle time, which Induction foster was able to achieve thanks to its process design and the efficiency of induction heating.

Preheating for forging of steel pins

Fast, precise heating of the pin – 2 minutes and 36 seconds were saved on heating all of the rim’s pins when compared to using a torch.
