Helping the Russian shipbuilding industry
EFD Induction Russia are sharing their assistance and knowhow as Russian shipyards are taking steps to revitalize their technology and equipment.
Shipbuilding
We provide induction heating equipment that is used in ship yards around the world for the construction, repair and maintenance of all kinds of vessels.Some examples are:
- Deck and bulkhead straightening during construction
- Straight welding of beams in double hulls
- Paint and coating removal
- Brazing of copper components
- Hardening of large gears, winches and chains
- Heat treatment of shafts
- Pre-heating of valves prior to welding

An EFD Induction Terac system ensures failsafe operation—it makes it impossible to overheat magnetic steel.
Induction heating is widely used to straighten ship decks and bulkheads.
For added ergonomic comfort, the handheld transformercan be attached to a balancer and suspended from a magnet or wire rope.
Terac works just as well on bulkheads and other vertical structures as it does on decks.
Operators can work with Terac within a 45m radius of the base unit. An optional extension unit lengthens the work area to a 60m radius.
