Induction welding is the process of joining two metals where the base material is elevated to a high temperature to exceed its melting point and in which, using its liquid state, are mixed to form a union of the fusion of all parties involved including a filler material if exists.
There are different forms of heating for welding, such as flame, contact at low or high frequency, TIG, MIG or MAG, and induction. However, all welding processes operate in very similar ways.
Given the characteristics of continuous process in tube production, induction welding presents a number of advantages over the other techniques already mentioned.
Induction welding provides the critical advantage in continuous manufacturing processes:
