Induction heating for tubular products
AJAX Tocco Magnethermic develops
induction heating technology for tubular
products. The company supplies
technology solutions from simple
applications to pioneering the use of
induction quench and temper lines for
heat treating API grades of pipe.
The company’s approach to applying
induction heating has solved a wide
variety of difficult problems. Pipe and
tube producers have benefited from
Ajax Tocco’s experience in supplying
everything from billet heaters for
seamless tube extrusion to developing
weld annealing, coupler heat treating,
and normalising tool joints, to precise pipe
coating. The recent addition of Emmedi
into the Ajax Tocco Magnethermic group
offers a brand that has been focused
on tube welding as well as heat treating
for more than fifty years. PMC Colinet
and Pines, also in the Ajax Tocco
Magnethermic group, provide pipe
threading machines.
The newly combined efforts of theAjax
Tocco technical leadership team can
help pipe and tube producers improve
quality, increase production and lower
costs to meet tough market demands in
more processing areas.
Customers
also
benefit
from
the resources of the Ajax Tocco
Magnethermic global organisation,
which provides worldwide assistance
through a network of regional sales and
service engineers.
