Fluxtrol provides products for operating frequencies between 1-5000 kHz, featuring high magnetic permeabilities and saturation flux densities. Key attributes include excellent thermal properties, corrosion resistance, and machinability. Notable products include Fluxtrol A, Fluxtrol 50, and Ferrotron 559H, each with specific applications.
Guidelines suggest material selection based on coil style and frequency, recommending Fluxtrol A for low frequencies and Ferrotron 559H for high frequencies. Consultation with Fluxtrol is advised for special applications.
Fluxtrol and Ferrotron materials are machinable with common tools. Safety measures include avoiding vacuuming during machining to prevent fire hazards. Anisotropy affects machining and application, with specific orientations recommended.
Etching enhances electrical resistance and prevents rusting, especially for Ferrotron 559H and Fluxtrol 50. It involves cleaning, using a 20% phosphoric acid solution, and maintaining a specific temperature, followed by rinsing and drying.
Surface Preparation: Clean and sand surfaces for good adhesive bonding.
Attachment Methods: Use epoxy adhesives or mechanical fasteners, ensuring thermal contact.
Maintenance: Regular inspections and cleaning are recommended, with replacements if overheating occurs.
Fluxtrol LRM is a magnetic composite material designed to replace traditional laminations, offering enhanced heat pattern control and cost-effectiveness. It is available in near-net shapes and can be finished to size.
Fluxtrol LRM maximizes performance with high permeability and lower losses, optimized for low and medium frequency applications. It offers excellent mechanical strength, thermal conductivity, and machinability.
Fluxtrol LRM results in cooler induction coil operation, extending coil lifetime by 2.3 times compared to laminations.
Fluxtrol LRM is suitable for various coil applications, demonstrating improvements in cycle times and production rates. Case studies show a 30% reduction in cycle times for aluminum brazing and a 100% increase in production rates for fastener heat treating.
Fluxtrol offers a training course on induction heating, emphasizing magnetic flux control and process design using computer simulation.
ELTA software provides electrothermal analysis of induction systems, aiding in design, process optimization, and project evaluations.
The document describes a rotary table machine for heat treating, focusing on tempering and quenching processes, with specifications ensuring a depth of austenitized layer greater than 800°C.
After quenching, the temperature at a 4 mm depth drops below 120°C, ensuring complete martensite transformation. A color map illustrates temperature distribution during process stages.
ELTA software is used for designing the heat treating process, providing 3D presentations of temperature evolution.
An industrial robot demonstrates the effect of a Fluxtrol concentrator on heating patterns.

e FLUXTROL Centre for Induction Technology Mdchining Safety and Machining FLUXTROL® & FERROTRON® flux concentrators are soft magnetic composites consisting of metal powders and dielectric binders compacted at high pressures with subsequent treatment. Fluxtrol when in solid form, do not represent a fire hazard. However, the metal powder or chips produced by machining may be a source of combustion. The primary source of combustion is friction. Red hot chips or "sparks" may be thrown off, fall or drop into the collection tray of a lathe, inside a band saw or near the grinding wheel dust. If these...
