Preheater range from Zumbach Electronic for enhanced induction efficiency

ZUMBACH Electronic, which specialises in non-contact measuring technologies for the tube and wire industry, has introduced the all-new in-line induction Preheater range.

It is designed to offer significant improvements in productivity and product quality. The Preheater range uses an intelligent induction power controller, ensuring stable and linear heating of conductors. This advancement enhances extrusion productivity and improves product quality. Through product development, the Preheater range now includes integrated wire speed sensors that automatically adjust power output, automated range selection and smart self-monitoring capabilities. These features ensure repeatable and uniform conductor temperatures, shortening start-up times and reducing waste – key factors in boosting profitability and efficiency within manufacturing processes. Designed to withstand the rigorous demands of harsh manufacturing environments, the Preheater features the VISU-Touch – a compact 7" capacitive touch screen operator interface. This offers flexible positioning via a standardised VESA mount. The Preheater range is available in three models with power ratings of 8kW, 16kW and 25kW. Each model includes an Ethernet TCP/IP service interface as standard.
