Induction heaters utilise advanced power electronics with application specific designs for high performance. 

As a result, by using an SKF induction heater, the total cost of ownership is significantly reduced.

Advantages of induction heating over other heating methods:

Induction heaters are the modern, efficient, and safe way to heat bearings. 

In operation, they are typically faster, cleaner, and more controllable to use than other heating methods such as open flame, oil bath, oven, and induction heating.

Why choose the SKF induction heater range?

The comprehensive SKF induction heater range can be used for efficiently heating bearings and workpieces, both large and small.

What’s more, their innovative design offers significant advantages to both owners and operators:

  • Advanced power electronics with accurate electric current control help control an increase in temperature.
  • The two-step power setting option (50% / 100%) enables small bearings to be heated safely and at lower power consumption.
  • For heating components other than bearings, all heaters are equipped with a heating time mode. 
  • Thermal overheating protection reduces the risk of damage to the induction coil and electronics, enhancing reliability and safety.
  • Automatic demagnetization minimises the risk of ferrous debris contamination after heating.
  • Available in different voltage variants to accommodate most operating voltages worldwide.
  • Supplied with heat-resistant gloves for improved operator safety.
