Induction Heating of Titanium and Aluminum Alloys

V. Rudnev, Inductoheat Inc., Madison Heights, MI

Presentation discusses different aspects of using induction for heating titanium alloys including

Ø      Induction system for heating large diameter titanium and aluminum billets prior to metal forming.

Ø      Specifics of induction slug pre-heating for semi-solid processing.

Ø      Induction heating of selected areas of non-ferrous parts

Ø      Numerical computer modeling of induction heating of non-ferrous parts.  Demonstration of the results of computer modelling of different applications and machine operation will be provided here as well.


Summary: Presentation discusses specifics of designing induction systems for heating large diameter titanium and aluminum billets prior to metal forming. Peculiarities of induction slug pre-heating for semi-solid processing and numerical computer modeling of induction heating of non-ferrous parts will be discussed here as well.
