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.
