Why to use 3D printed coils for your induction heating?

3D Printing Inductors

The induction technology has experienced a significant growth in the last 4 years considering the huge benefits that this kind of process can bring. We have been able to consolidate that it offers advantages from an energy point of view, increases speed, repeatability and quality of process offering also better working conditions. Its field of application ranges from preheat and brazing to heat treatments and melting of countless components in various market segments such as HVAC, Electronics, Cutting tools, etc.

One of the main characteristics that distinguishes induction heating from other heating processes is the ability to concentrate the area to be heated in a very precise way. All this is achieved thanks to the shape and high precision of the induction coil.

The coil has always been considered as one of the most delicate parts to design and produce and it has always been realized by skilled technicians manually with long and complex processes.

Thanks to new technologies, such as 3D printing of metals using high-conductivity Cu-based powders, the realization of the coil is simplified and improved from a mechanical and economic aspect.
