Application note Measuring system CellaInduction Induction heating Advantages of the two-colour technology Advanced induction heating systems are widely employed in today’s forging industry for hot-forging applications. Prior to forging, steel is heated to a temperature between 1000 °C and 1250 °C. The required process temperature depends on the carbon content and the specific alloying elements of the steel. Hot forging requires uniform heat distribution across the width and the length of the workpiece. The billet is heated to a temperature above its recrystallization temperature. Induction...

Solution The infrared thermometer CellaTemp® PKL was especially developed to optimally fulfil the special requirements for the temperature measurement in induction heating application. The compact design with a M30 central thread offers easy installation options even under limited space. With the response time from 2 ms the instruments provide the necessary short time for the rejection of the billets and for a quick temperature control. For checking the right focal distance and the alignment, the infrared thermometer is equipped with a continuously illuminated LED spot light. It shows both...
