Note: Heating Wire-impregnated Hose (Tube Forming)

Objective:

To heat wire impregnated hose for a tube forming application. 

End Product:

Hose

Equipment:

Ambrell 1.2 kW, 150-400 kHz induction heating power supply, equipped with a remote heat station containing one 0.66 μF capacitor.
A 2-turn channel induction heating coil designed and developed specifically for the application. 

Materials:

Wire-impregnated hose

Temperature:

300 °F (149 °C)

Frequency:

223 kHz

Testing:

To reach a temperature of around 300 F requires a minimal amount of power. 

Benefits:

A 1 kW power supply heats the assembly to a temperature of 300 Ă °F. Heating time of 60 to 90 seconds produces the bend required. Precise, controllable heat pattern prevents burns and splits.
