In preparation for Heat Treat Today's May Induction magazine, here is a best of the web to end your week on.
How do they do it? What happens to metals when they are being induction heated? If you've had experience with heat treating using induction, how does it compare to other forms of heat treatment? This helpful article runs down the basics of induction and includes a video with different phases of the process. Check it out!
"As current flows through a medium, there will be some resistance to the movement of the electrons. This resistance shows up as heat (The Joule Heating Effect). Materials that are more resistant to the flow of electrons will give off more heat as current flows through them, but it is certainly possible to heat highly conductive materials (for example, copper) using an induced current."
