- Portable induction heater TWIM 15
- Magnetic K-type 400 mm temperature probe TWIM 15-3
- Temperature-resistant gloves TMBA G11
- Instructions for use
PRODUCT FEATURES
 |
|
Versatile Because of the induction plate’s flat shape, a support yoke is not needed. This increases the type of components that can be heated on the plate and also reduces the number of required accessories.
|
|
Portable Due to the medium-frequency technology used and choice of materials, the heater is lightweight. Also, the built-in handle makes it convenient to transport, and it can be stored easily.
|
|
Innovative heating Utilizing smart construction and operating software, the heater creates a low temperature difference between the inner and outer ring of the bearing. This reduces the internal tensions generated due to excessive thermal expansion of the inner ring compared to the outer ring
|
|
Power regulation Featuring different power settings, the TWIM 15 can heat sensitive components at a slower pace. Also, a non-bearing power configuration is possible where most of the power is focused on the bore of the component.
|
|
Quiet Using medium-frequency technology to heat components does not generate noise. A LED indicates when the TWIM 15 is heating, even if you cannot hear it. In parallel, a cooling fan might be heard to help the heater's electronics to stay cool.
