Types of Induction Heating Coils

There are thousands of different induction coil designs with all sorts of different geometries, dimensions and materials used.  Many induction heating coils are created to achieve a simple task and are made in a  shop without any advanced studies and optimization.  Induction coils for "standard" applications (such as scanning coils for shafts and axles) have very significant resources for performance improvement.

The benefits of magnetic flux controllers are typically under-evaluated.  New magnetic materials and advancements in manufacturing technologies give additional opportunities for induction coil design improvement.  Computer simulation is also a very powerful tool for induction coil design and process optimization.
