Induction Furnace - Ideal for Medium to Small-Sized Project

At Shanghai Metallurgy Equipment Group, we pride ourselves on being a leading provider of induction furnace solutions, tailored to meet the needs of medium to small-sized steelmaking projects. Our commitment to excellence extends from the initial design phase all the way to the complete construction of your iron and steel plant, offering a comprehensive turnkey and Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) service.

What is an Induction Furnace?

An induction furnace is a type of electric furnace where heat is applied by induction heating of metal. These furnaces utilize an alternating electromagnetic field to generate heat directly within the metal. Typically, they operate using medium-frequency alternating current (AC), ranging from a few hundred Hertz (Hz) to several kilohertz (kHz). The core component is a coil through which an alternating current is passed, creating an electromagnetic field that induces currents within the metal, causing it to heat up and melt.

The Role of Induction Furnace

Induction furnaces play a crucial role in modern steelmaking processes, particularly for medium and small-sized operations. They offer a cleaner and more energy-efficient alternative to traditional melting methods, enabling the production of high-quality steel with reduced environmental impact. Induction furnaces are ideal for melting various types of metals, including steel, aluminum, and copper, making them versatile and essential in the metallurgical industry.

Why Choose Induction Furnaces?

  1. Energy Efficiency: Our induction furnaces stand out for their remarkable energy efficiency. The unique electromagnetic field generated by the furnace directly induces currents within the steel, leading to rapid and even heating. This process not only conserves energy but also translates into significant cost savings for your operation.

  2. Environmental Impact: By choosing our induction furnaces, you're also making a sustainable choice. The direct heating of scrap metals through electromagnetic induction minimizes energy consumption, resulting in lower emissions and pollutants. This commitment to environmental responsibility is at the heart of our operations.

  3. Consistent Quality: We understand the importance of maintaining the highest standards of quality in the steel industry. Our Induction Furnace Melting (IF) shops are designed to ensure the consistent quality and properties of the molten steel, which is crucial for the production of top-tier steel products.

  4. Integrated Production: When paired with a ladle refining furnace and a continuous casting machine, our induction furnaces form an integrated system that produces high-quality billets. This seamless integration leads to a more efficient production process, with the added benefit of being user-friendly and easy to maintain.

The Restriction of Induction Furnace

However, it is important to acknowledge the limitations of induction furnaces. One such limitation is the lack of refining capacity. This means that the quality of the final product can be significantly influenced by the initial quality of the scrap metal used. Therefore, careful selection of scrap is essential and must be tailored to the specific type of steel being produced. And it is impossible to smelt low-carbon steel with low carbon, phosphorus and sulfur.

To address the inherent limitations of induction furnaces, Shanghai Metallurgy Equipment Group has developed an innovative solution: the Induction Furnace - LOD - LRF system. This breakthrough technology retains the advantages of low cost and easy operation while significantly enhancing the refining capabilities.
