Induction Billet Heaters

Product catalog summary

Introduction
Banyard billet heaters are designed for precision heating in the extrusion industry, utilizing multi-layer induction heating coils for efficient and rapid heating. This technology ensures a compact equipment footprint while maintaining high power density.

Efficiency and Quality
Induction heating offers rapid heating rates, reducing oxide formation and surface burnout of alloying elements, which enhances product quality. The reduced time at temperature minimizes grain growth and precipitation of Mg2Si in aluminum alloys, improving the anodizing finish.

Smart Power and Control
Banyard's precision taper heating is achieved through multiple control zone induction coil technology, powered by the Inductotherm LFi series low-frequency IGBT converter. This allows for accurate thermal profiles and isothermal extrusion, maximizing ram speed.

Why Choose Banyard?
With over 50 years of experience, Banyard is a leader in induction heating equipment for non-ferrous applications. The company offers a fast response service globally, supported by Inductotherm Group companies and professional agents for coil repairs, spare parts, and technical support.

Product Range
Banyard provides billet heating solutions for non-ferrous alloys such as aluminum, magnesium, copper, brass, and titanium. The product range includes standalone taper heating and integrated boost heating, which can be combined with gas pre-heaters and shear/saw combinations. Various billet handling options are available, including 'zero friction' servo handling for the aluminum micro-tubing industry.

Technical Specifications
The systems feature multi-zone IGBT inverters with zone phase synchronization, selectable frequency control (20 – 200 Hz), up to 6 control zones, and a constant input power factor (>0.95 Cos Phi). The compact footprint allows for 800 kW in a 2.0m x 2.4m space.
