Induction heating is used when metal needs to be heated quickly and with better control. It works without a direct flame and can be used for different heating and melting work. Abhay Induction Tech Pvt Ltd offers Induction Heating Equipment along with induction furnaces, power supplies, IGBT panels, furnace automation and other related systems.
The company is part of Aussietherm (MIT Australia), which was established in 2000. Its Ahmedabad facility manufactures induction furnaces and related equipment for customers in India, Asia, Africa and the Middle East. The company also provides induction heating and hardening equipment for different industrial requirements.
Basics of Induction Heating
Induction Heating Equipment uses electrical energy to heat electrically conductive metals. A power supply sends current through a coil, which creates a magnetic field. This field produces heat inside the metal without direct contact.
Important points include:
- Heating without direct flame: The metal is heated without using a direct flame.
- Better heating control: The process allows better control over the heating conditions.
- IGBT-based systems: IGBT systems are used to convert and control electrical power.
- Water cooling: Water cooling is used for relevant parts of the equipment.
- Digital controls: Digital controls can help operators monitor the process.

Key Points for Industrial Heating
Selecting suitable equipment depends on the heating requirement and the type of work involved.
- Metal type: Steel, iron, aluminium and copper may need different heating arrangements.
- Power requirement: The power supply should match the required heating or melting work.
- Frequency range: Different applications may need different operating frequencies.
- Cooling system: Water cooling and protection features should be checked.
- Control system: Digital controls, monitoring and alarm history can make operation easier.
- Maintenance: Easy access to components can help during inspection and servicing.
Benefits of Using a Heating System
The right system can make heating work easier to control and manage.
- Faster heating: Induction can heat metal without using a direct flame.
- Better control: Power and temperature can be monitored during operation.
- Compact design: Compact power supply designs are available for suitable applications.
- Energy use: IGBT-based systems are designed to provide controlled power conversion.
- Remote monitoring: The Melt Doctor system allows authorised users to monitor and troubleshoot furnace systems remotely.
Understanding System Requirements
Before selecting equipment, buyers can check the heating process, metal type, required capacity, power range and available space. The required level of automation and cooling arrangement should also be considered.
Where the equipment can be used:
- Metal heating and melting
- Induction hardening
- Heating of bars, rods, billets and tubes
- Foundry applications
- Automotive and engineering applications
- Heat treatment processes
How to select the system:
- Check the material and heating requirement.
- Match the power supply with the application.
- Consider the required frequency range.
- Check automation and monitoring features.
- Look at maintenance and service requirements.
