The steel billet induction heating equipment is a device used in the metallurgical industry to reheat cooled steel billets, with the aim of increasing their temperature and making them suitable for the next process, such as rolling, forging, etc. This type of heating furnace can help improve the processing performance of steel and ensure the smooth progress of subsequent processes.
Working principle and type
The working principle of the steel billet induction reheating machine varies depending on different heating methods, and common types include gas heating furnaces, electric heating furnaces, and induction heating furnaces. Gas heating furnaces use gas as fuel to directly heat steel billets through the high-temperature gas generated by combustion. An electric heating furnace heats steel billets by generating heat through conductive materials in an electric furnace using current. Induction heating furnace uses the changing magnetic field generated by induction coils to induce eddy currents in the conductive material (steel billet) inside, thereby heating the steel billet.
Design features and advantages
The design of modern steel billet induction reheating furnace emphasizes energy efficiency and automation to reduce operational difficulty and improve production efficiency. For example, some heating furnaces use electromagnetic induction heating technology to control heating temperature and feeding speed through touch screens and PLC programs, achieving precise heating processes. In addition, some designs also include protective components between induction coil groups, which are usually made of ceramics and have high temperature resistance and non-magnetic properties, helping to protect equipment and prevent steel billet collisions during the heating process.
