Electric Furnace VS Induction Furnace - Xi'an Hani Tech

electric furnace, induction furnace

The electric furnace is a heating furnace that converts the electric energy in the furnace into heat to heat the workpiece. Electric furnaces can be divided into resistance furnaces, induction furnaces, electric arc furnaces, plasma furnaces, electron beam furnaces, etc. An induction furnace is a type of electric furnace.


Electric Furnace vs Induction Furnace


Electric Furnace Features:

The atmosphere in the furnace is easy to control;

The material is heated quickly;

High heating temperature;

The temperature is easy to control;

The production process is easier to realize mechanization and automation;

Good labor hygiene conditions;

High thermal efficiency;

The products are of good quality and are more environmentally friendly, which is conducive to alleviating the increasingly serious environmental problems.


Induction Furnace Features

Induction furnaces are actually electric furnaces. It's the induction heating equipment with the highest heating efficiency and the fastest speed for metal materials, low consumption, energy saving and environmental protection.

Induction electric furnace is also known as high-frequency heating machine, high-frequency induction heating equipment, high-frequency induction heating device, high-frequency heating power supply, high-frequency power supply, high-frequency electric furnace, etc. In addition, there are intermediate frequency induction heating equipment, ultra-high frequency induction heating equipment, etc. . The range of applications is very wide. Among them, the intermediate frequency induction furnace is demanded by more national steel mills.


Application


Application of Electric Furnace vs Induction Furnace

1. Heat treatment: partial or overall quenching, annealing, tempering, and diathermy of various metals;

2. Thermoforming: whole piece forging, partial forging, hot heading, hot rolling;

3. Welding: brazing of various metal products, welding of various knife blades and saw blades, welding of steel pipes and copper pipes, welding of the same and different metals;

4. Metal smelting: (vacuum) smelting, casting molding and evaporation coating of gold, silver, copper, iron, aluminum and other metals;

5. Other applications of high-frequency heating machine: semiconductor single crystal growth, thermal fit, bottle neck heat sealing, toothpaste skin heat sealing, powder coating, metal implanted plastic, etc.

Users can choose the appropriate electric furnace or induction furnace according to different raw materials, finished product requirements, forging conditions, etc.


The application of electric furnace vs induction furnace has brought the production of cast iron into a new stage, and the medium frequency induction furnace has been rapidly achieved due to its advantages of high thermal efficiency and electrical efficiency, short melting time, low power consumption, less land occupation, low investment and easy implementation of process automation. develop. The adoption of the static frequency converter presents a new trend in its application in cast iron production.
