Timken EcoPower™ induction heaters may be used for both mounting and dismounting of components with tight fits and are ideal for installing large bore bearings in wind turbine applications. The units save time by heating work pieces faster than conventional methods, and reduce energy consumption by utilizing fewer amps to operate.
Every Timken EcoPower™ induction heater is customized based on specific application needs. A Timken specialist will work directly with you to determine the proper size generator and applicable heating tool. Depending on your needs, we offer flexible coils, fixed coil and heating tables to best meet the specifications of the job.
