High Frequency Induction Heating is now very widely adopted in engineering wherever controlled heating is required; in brazing, soldering, hardening, annealing, tempering and similar operations. With extensive experience to draw on Solbraze is able to give invaluable information on the design of workcoils and inductors, on modifying the design of components or assemblies to facilitate use of the process and on jigs and handling mechanisms.

The basic principle of Induction Heating is that heat is generated in the work due to the fact that the lines of flux surrounding the workcoil cut into the surface of the work and induce circulating currents. Only those parts of the work lying in the magnetic field will become heated, thus allowing localised areasof work to be heated selectively, and hence processes to be successfully carried out that could not be achieved by any other method.
