Induction hardening machine Description:
Hardening is a process of heating followed by cooling generally fast for increase hardness and mechanical strength of steel.
To this end, the steel is heated to a temperature slightly higher than the upper critical (between 850-900ºC) and then cooled more or less quickly (depending on the characteristics of steel) in a medium such as oil, air, water, water mixed with soluble polymers, etc.
There are different methods for heating such as electric oven, gas cooker, salt, flame, induction, etc.
The steels that are normally used in induction hardening contain from 0.3% to 0.7% carbon (hypoeutectic steels).
Induction Hardening machine advantages:
It treats a specific part of the piece (hardening profile)
Frequency Control and heating times
Cooling control
Energy saving
No physical contact
Control and located heat
Can be integrated in production lines
Increase performance and saves space
Induction hardening can be done in two different ways:
Static: consists of setting the part in front of the inductor and carrying out the operation without moving either the part or the inductor. This type of operation is very fast, requires only simple mechanics and enables a very accurate localisation of the treated area, even with parts with complicated geometry.
Progressive (by scanning): consists of going over the part with a continuous operation, moving either the part or the inductor. This kind of operation means that parts with large surfaces and large sizes can be treated.
For the same kind of part the scanning treatment requires less power with longer treatment time in compare to static treatment.
Services
The objective of ORD Care Services is to make easier your life when you finally start with the production responsibility using ORD products. We can help with the operation and maintenance tasks finding out how to maximize production/process quality and economical results.
ORD Customer Services organization is fully committed with the above objective keeping close to their customers during the whole life-span system, being proactively suggested for improvements on the application. Information data systems and well defined and stored documentation on your installation allow ORD Customer Services to trace, analyse and give solutions for your continuous production improvement.
ORD company provides you an international technical assistance network and the following services:
Start-up Service
This service is always included with the supply of an installation to leave the system up and running as part of a project.
On-site production assistance
In order to guarantee a ramp up production and to learn through hands-on training, ORD technical experts can assist you during the initial production time period with the new installation.
Inductor Shop
We repair and manufacture all kind of coils/inductors for the industry for which our equipment is intended (automobile, casting, pipe-welding, etc.). Each inductor in each customer is followed up to control its performance and durability in order to improve next units.
Preventive Maintenance
In today’s production systems it is increasingly important to reduce halts in production as far as possible, as well as requiring a good maintenance policy. ORD offers Preventive Maintenance Contracts to deal with all our supplies, adapting these to suit our customers’ requirements.
