Turn Key Machines

Induction heating equipment is typically designed and built for a particular process or work piece. The critical components of a production machine include the power supply, material handling mechanics, quench system, induction tooling and the controls system. Each component must work in harmony with one another to produce the desired production rate and expected quality of each part.

At KVA, we understand the significance of your capital investment and attempt to design overall systems that present flexible options for future parts or processes. The limiting component for most applications is the power supply. By properly sizing the unit for future intentions, a substantial savings can be realized over the life time of the unit.

Turnkey machines have a variety of material handling options from fully automatic to operator dependent. Because many heat treated parts require rotation during the heat process, lift and rotate machines are a popular handling method. In the lift & rotate process, the work piece is manually loaded into a fixture which is then lifted into position within the induction coil. This method provides quick and accurate heating.

Scanners, horizontal walking beam, rotary index and single shot machines can be applicable to a wide range of parts. Contact us for an evaluation of your application.
