Note: Heating a pin to cut holes (rubberized material)
Objective:
Heating a pin assembly to cut holes in a rubberized material
End Product:
Rubberized material
Equipment:
Ambrell 4.2 kW induction heating system, equipped with a remote workhead containing one 1.0 μF capacitor.
An induction heating coil designed and developed specifically for this application.
Materials:
Metal disc 3.75 in OD (95.25 mm) with 72 pins .375 in (9.5 mm) long, .09735â (2.47 mm) OD
Temperature:
518 °F (270 °C)
Frequency:
195 kHz
Testing:
A single-turn channel coil is used to heat the disc. Power is applied and the disc rotates at 14 rpm to maintain a constant temperature of 518 °F (270 °C).
Customer is currently cutting holes in the rubberized material without heat and is having a problem with the pins sticking. By adding heat to the process the sticking is
eliminated.
Benefits:
-
Precise and consistent application of heat
-
Consistent and repeatable results
-
Hands-free heating that involves no operator skill for manufacturing
