    A carbon graphite ring was shrink fit into a steel band using induction heating. A steel band was heated to 1000°F using a 10 kW induction heating system with a remote workhead containing eight capacitors and a custom induction heating coil. The carbon graphite ring was inserted into the heated steel band and the assembly was allowed to cool, creating a strong joint between the two pieces. Induction heating provides accurate, repeatable heating and cooling cycles for precise shrink fitting without operator involvement.

    Shrink fit a carbon graphite ring insert into an outer steel band
    Objective Heating a steel band to 1000 F (538 C) and inserting a carbon graphite ring in the center of the steel band Material 4340 steel ring 8 (20.3cm) OD x 7.75 (19.7cm) ID, .895 (22.7mm) thick, carbon graphite ring insert Temperature 1000 F (538 C) Frequency 132 kHz Equipment Ambrell 10 kW induction heating system, equipped with a remote workhead containing eight capacitors. An induction heating coil designed and developed specifically for this application.

    Process A four turn, two over two helical coil is used for heating the steel ring. Power is applied for 14 seconds to reach the 1000 F (538 C), the carbon graphite ring is inserted and the assembly is allowed to cool creating a strong joint between the two pieces. Results/Benefits Induction heating provides: A highly effective joint Accurate & repeatable heat Precise control of cycle times Uniform and repeatable results Hands-free heating that involves no operator skill for manufacturing
