InductoForge® Modular Induction Billet Heater-2

Infeed Systems – Heavy Duty InductoForge® Pinch Roll and Tractor Chain drive infeed systems push the billets through the InductoForge® coil line at a very accurate rate controlled by a variable frequency AC motor. Both systems automatically adjust for the diameter of the billet (for quick change-over). A lost motion detector will automatically shut down power to the system if the billets stop moving for any reason. Hot Billet Extraction – The Fastextractor™ equipment is manufactured to provide many years of low maintenance operation. Heavy-duty, multi-strand chain works with the gravity pinch...
