By employing cutting edge induction hardening technology, GH Induction drives advancements in fastener manufacturing with two key innovations – FEM simulation for precision hardening and additive manufacturing for induction coils.
Finite Element Method (FEM) simulation is used to model the heating process in 3D before testing on actual fasteners. This enables precise predictions of how magnetic fields and temperatures interact during hardening, ensuring uniformity and optimal quality. Additionally, FEM simulation supports the design of complex inductor geometries, enhancing efficiency and reliability in production.
GH Induction also leverages Electron Beam Melting (EBM) to 3D print pure copper induction coils, eliminating brazed points and enhancing durability. This patented process not only extends coil lifespan but also enables the design of complex geometries previously unattainable, unlocking new possibilities in hardening diverse screw profiles.
“By combining these innovations with precise control, energy efficiency and a commitment to sustainability, GH Induction redefines fastener manufacturing, ensuring stronger, greener, and more reliable products, for industries such as automotive and aerospace,” explains GH Induction.
Becca is the latest member to join our team and is eager to get stuck into the world of fasteners. She brings an enthusiastic and fresh outlook on what we do editorially and will be leading our social media activity – including sourcing material, editing articles and posting online.
