Induction heating solutions for the railway industry
The unrivalled accuracy, control and efficiency of induction heating makes it ideal for key tasks in the manufacture and maintenance of rolling stock and rails.
Disassembling and shrink-fitting bearing and lock rings
Shrink-fitting uses thermal expansion to either fit or remove parts such as rings, gears and bearings on shafts. The benefit of using induction for this process is that it is very fast and controlled.
