EMMEDI
presents an
evolution
in induction
welding
EMMEDI, the tube specialist which
is part of the the Ajax TOCCO
Magnethermic Corporation group
of companies, is presenting a new
evolution in induction welding tech-
nology, which will be shown at the most
important events globally in the second
half of 2017.
Equipped with reliable silicon carbide
transistors this innovative product has
been tested for more than a year on
different applications – including tube
welding – and it has been demonstrated
to be efficient and reliable. Those
characteristics combine with a compact
footprint for the power supply, minimising
floor space needed for the mill and
making it an ideal solution in terms
of energy consumption and space.
Output power ranges up to 800kW and
this solution is able to accommodate
a contact head for continuous contact
welding.
The EMMEDI induction line is not
limited to welders, but covers a wide
range of solutions dedicated to the
tube and pipe industry, including seam
annealers, body annealers (bright
and dull), coating and heating prior
upsetting. EMMEDI benefits from
new synergies with Ajax TOCCO and
its extended network to offer a wide
range of products designed to high
standards. This partnership is ensuring
the foundations are in place to increase
its influence in the tube and pipe market,
including widespread technical support
and after-sales services.
