Melting, holding and casting of metals

Induction technology – efficient and resource-saving

In an inductive heating system, metals are heated by means of an electromagnetic field that acts directly on the material to be heated – without combusting fuels such as gas or oil.

By deciding to invest in induction technology, our customers help save fossil fuels, reduce CO2 emissions and make a significant contribution to the green transformation of the metals industry. Using green electricity can even make the operation of induction heating plants entirely carbon-free.

Many induction furnaces are used as scrap melting units. In this way, they help to recycle metals many times over, making a significant contribution to the circular economy and the reuse of valuable resources.

Due to our comprehensive engineering expertise, decades of practical experience and innovative capacities, Induga is a worldwide leading supplier of technology for inductive melting and casting of metals.
