Induction

Inductive soldering/heating is used when a precise and limited area is heated up with an electrically conductive material such as steel and other metals. The process: Between the atoms in metals so-called conduction electrons move relatively freely.

When the metal is exposed to a magnetic alternating field the electrons move at the same frequency, that is a current is induced into the metal. When the condution electrons collide with the atoms, heat is produced. An example of applications with induction techniques are: hardening, tempering, annealing, stress-relieving, normalization, recrystalization, solution heat treatment, separation hardening, melting, forging, brazing, soft soldering, pipe bending, forced fitting, sintring etc.
