A transverse flux induction heater with very high heating rates at very high temperatures designed for the specific requirements of high-strength carbon, stainless or silicon steel grades. Because it replaces a gas-fired furnace, you can achieve a significant reduction in NOx and CO2 emissions.
Versatile, compact and economical
High-flux induction heating solutions offer an alternative to conventional steel strip heating processes. CELES EcoTransFlux™, transverse flux induction heating technology is a proven alternative for very rapid heating at high temperatures:
- Heating capability: up to 1,200°C
- High heating rates: up to 400°C/sec
- Heating of non-magnetic materials: stainless steel, Gen3 AHSS, etc.
- Thermal efficiency above 75% regardless of strip format
- Compact units for easier integration
- Minimized environmental impact
BREAKTHROUGH DESIGN FOR AUTOMOTIVE STEELS
In order to meet the challenging annealing process of new Gen3 AHSS steels, CELES EcoTransFlux™ - a transverse flux induction heater - is designed for high temperature annealing cycles and galvannealing of steels with a large fraction of austenite.
Benefits:
- Higher temperature increase up to 400°C/s
- High annealing temperatures 900-950°C
- Eco-friendly
Gen3 AHSS features a unique combination of high strength and high formability, which enables new designs of lighter and safer vehicles.
