Induction annealing

Do you want to reduce internal stresses, improve machinability, or prevent deformation?
RF HEATING CONSULT

The Question

Why inductive annealing?

  • Less distortion

    Heat is introduced in a targeted manner, limiting unnecessary heat load on the entire product.
  • Highly reproducible

    Power, time, position, and temperature can be accurately recorded and repeated.
  • Energy-efficient process

    Only the desired area is heated. This makes the process fast, efficient, and clean. Ask your question.

Applications

Applications of induction annealing

For steel, stainless steel, and other metals

Suitable for a wide range of geometries, from tubes and rings to local zones on larger parts.

From single pieces to series production

The process can be performed manually, semi-automatically, or fully automatically.

Optional with temperature control

With a pyrometer and closed-loop control, the annealing temperature remains stable and reproducible.

Key benefits

  • Specialist in induction heating since 2006
  • In-house laboratory for process testing
  • Practical engineering and customization
  • Independent advice
  • Guidance from concept to production
  • Service and technical support

From test to production

RF Heating Consult assists with the selection of frequency, power, coil shape, soldering material, flux, shielding gas, and temperature control. In the laboratory, the process can first be practically tested before a production system is specified.
Applications
The technique is widely applicable for small precision parts and tools.
  • Stress-relieving annealing after welding
  • Softening of cold-formed parts
  • Annealing before machining operations
  • Annealing of shafts, tubes, and structural components
  • Heat treatment of steel and other metals
  • Preparation for further production processes
