GH Induction Atmospheres Introduces Innovative Technology for Inductor Manufacturing
GH Induction Atmospheres today introduced innovative technology for inductor manufacturing. With Microfusion, a patented process developed by GH Group, identical inductors can be produced from the same 3D manufacturing mold - improving quality and durability.
Rochester, NY, February 08, 2011 --(PR.com)-- GH Induction Atmospheres (GH IA), a leading provider of industrial induction heating machines, today introduced innovative technology for inductor manufacturing. With Microfusion, a patented process developed by GH Group, identical inductors can be produced from the same 3D manufacturing mold.
The inductor (the business end of induction heating machines used for metal hardening, brazing, and other metal heating processes) consists of specially-shaped conductive material through which alternating electrical current is passed. Traditional inductor manufacturing is a one-off process; copper tubing is shaped by hand to conform to engineering specifications. This makes it exceptionally difficult to manufacture absolutely identical inductors with the same performance characteristics.
With GH Microfusion technology, multiple inductors can be produced from the same pre-qualified mold. This increases repeatability and consistency when multiple induction systems are running the same process, and significantly reduces maintenance and calibration time when inductors need to changed.
"With Microfusion, we can offer inductors with increased life at competitive prices," said Steve Skewes, General Manager of GH IA. "This innovative process will also enable us to design and produce complex inductors that simply were not possible with traditional methods."
GH manufactures these inductors with a material compound that is 25% more conductive than copper. Advanced 3D design of the inside wall of the inductor improves cooling efficiency. With one-piece construction that eliminates any weak points from welding or brazing, the finished inductor offers improved durability.
