A manufacturer of pistons approached THE LAB at Ambrell with a shrink fitting application. They had been using an inexpensive portable induction unit, but found it unreliable for their application. Their application involved heating magnetic steel pistons for shrink fitting onto a chrome shaft. The target temperature was 1,100 °F (593 °C).

A client in the oil and gas industry came to Ambrell with a shrink fitting application. They had been using a cold method for inserting carbide buttons into hammer bits, but wanted to look to induction heating. They took advantage of THE LAB at Ambrell's complimentary applications testing to determine the feasibility of their shrink fitting application. 

A manufacturer of power generation equipment approached THE LAB at Ambrell with a shrink fitting application. They had been shrink fitting a magnetic steel gear with an oven, but that oven took over two hours to heat the gear to 550 °F (288 °C). Their hope was that induction could significantly reduce that time, which would increase their productivity and enable more throughput. They sent in their parts to Ambrell and took advantage of complimentary applications testing. 

A client needed to heat an aluminum tube for a shrink fitting application. It is a component for an optical system. The client had been using an oven. They took advantage of complimentary applications testing and turned to THE LAB at Ambrell's applications team and their extensive experience to develop a solution.
