Every time a customer calls us, we have to ask them a series of questions about the size, length, heating temperature, output, etc. of their workpieces. The reason why we ask this is very simple, that is, we want to help you select the model, so that you can worry less. But what is the correct way to choose medium frequency induction heating equipment?
1. Shape and size of the workpiece to be heated
For large workpieces, induction heating equipment with relatively high power and low frequency should be selected; for small workpieces such as pipes, plates, gears, etc., induction heating equipment with relatively low power and high frequency should be selected.
2. Depth and area required to be heated
For deep heating depth, large area, and overall heating, induction heating equipment with high power and low frequency should be selected; for shallow heating depth, small area, and local heating, induction heating equipment with relatively low power and high frequency should be selected.
3. Required heating speed
If fast heating speed is required, induction heating equipment with relatively large power and relatively low frequency should be selected.
4. The continuous working time of the equipment
If the continuous working time is long, induction heating equipment with slightly larger power should be selected. On the contrary, equipment with relatively small power should be selected.
5. The wiring distance between the sensing element and the device
If the connection is long and even needs to be connected with a water-cooled cable, relatively high-power induction heating equipment should be used.
6. Process requirements
Generally speaking, processes such as quenching and welding can have relatively lower power and higher frequency; processes such as tempering and annealing can have relatively higher power and lower frequency.
7. Material of work piece
Among metals, those with higher melting points will use higher power, those with lower melting points will need less power, those with smaller resistivities will need more power, and those with higher resistivities will need less power.
