Inductors are essential parts of the induction heating chain. They are the end tool allowing the creation and management of the magnetic around the part to be heated. For more than 100 years its manufacturing process has been using joining technologies where the skill of the coppersmith has been the safeguard of the quality. Use of shaping form, machined parts have improved the repeatability and quality of the produced elements but high volume, dimensional repeatability have always been problematic.
GH Induction has always been working in the improvement of such method to allow better lifetime, minimized production time and overall better quality.
After a first patented innovation in 2011 using a precision casting solution (Microfusion™) providing a one piece made coil, GH Induction has, after 2 years of development, patented a new additive material solution (3D printing concept) based on the use of Electron Beam Melting (EBM). If the EBM solution benefit from the latest technology in additive manufacturing, both technologies present tremendous advantages for the designer and user. Complex shape, tiny inductor impossible to do with standard method,…
This presentation and article summarized the concept, manufacturing principle and technical benefits that the final users can have using such solutions.
