Additional News Release Information
Induction Heating More Efficient, Effective than Alternatives
Induction heating offers benefits that improve productivity and safety while reducing overall job costs. The new ProHeat™ induction heating technology provides high-efficiency heating with easy-to-use equipment, eliminates expenses and hazards related to fuel gases, creates less particulate from insulation and fume from flame, and reduces exposure to burns from open flames and ceramic heating elements.
Miller’s new induction heating site explores all of these topics and provides case studies on successful induction heating applications, as well as a detailed application section that offers photos and descriptions of specific uses for induction heating, such as the post-weld heat treatment (PWHT) of P91 chrome alloy materials, heating of multiple joints, set-up of complicated joint geometries and fixturing of liquid heating cables. Visitors can also order a free CD-ROM that includes a full catalog of technical data and process demonstrations, as well as product information on Miller’s ProHeat 35 induction heating system.
