Multi-core induction heaters - SKF TIH MC
...a flexible heating solution for very large bearings and workpieces
The patent pending, SKF Multi-core Induction Heaters TIH MC series are energy efficient custom-made heating solutions, that can save heating time and potentially reduce CO2 emissions.
- Flexible design, consisting of a number of induction heating cores and coils controlled by a single control and power cabinet
- Suitable for heating large thin section workpieces, such as railway tyres
- Depending on workpiece, heating capacities of several tonnes can be realised
- For components sensitive to uneven induction heating, they allow for a more even temperature gradient across the whole circumference
- Ergonomically designed sliding yoke, for larger TIH MC series, reduces lifting time
- Remote control panel, detachable from the power cabinet, helps improve ease of use and user safety
- Temperature mode allows the desired heating temperature to be specified, helping prevent component overheating
- Time mode for heating components other than bearings, allows flexibility in application
- Automatic demagnetisation at the end of heating cycle helps reduce the risk of ferrous contamination of the bearing
- Unique design allows for custom-made solutions to be quickly and economically produced
The type of TIH MC series heater required depends on the application. Based on your application details, SKF can configure a solution to meet your needs. To select the right solution, we need application information such as:
Bearings to be heated:
- Bearing designation
- If new bearing: main dimension and weight (kg)
- Required temperature (?C)
- Mounting frequency (once a day / week / month)
- Power supply available (V, A and Hz)
- Present or considered heating method (oven, oil bath, ...)
- Drawing of workpiece with dimensions (mm)
- Weight (kg)
- Material of workpiece (steel, cast iron, etc.)
- Required temperature (?C)
- Mounting frequency (once a day / week / month)
