The Terac deck straightening system brings the cost, safety and environmental benefits of induction heating to shipyards. A proven turnkey solution, the Terac only needs an electricity supply and it is ready to start work. Terac is ideal for deck and bulkhead straightening.
Rapid, repeatable and controllable: Fast, easy, precise and repeatable heating improves both quality and productivity. Terac has been documented to cut straightening times by as much as 80 percent compared to flame heating. Through-heating of steel decks and bulkheads is rapid, e.g., 8mm in only 8 seconds.
Maximum operator efficiency: A plug-and-play system—operator training takes only a couple of hours. Operation is simple with easy to understand operator controls conveniently placed on the handle.
Failsafe operation: Pre-set parameters minimize the risk of overheating, so it is virtually impossible to overheat the metal.
Robust construction: Terac components are designed and built to last in tough shipyard environments.
Small equipment footprint: A complete Terac system fits in one standard sized container, making it easy to move from one work site to another.
Extensive work range: Operators can work with Terac within a 45m radius of the base unit. An optional extension unit lengthens the work area to a 60m radius.The handheld transformer lets operators heat bulkheads and hard-to-reach areas.
Gentle on the environment: No fumes, no dust, no flames, no noise, no gas and virtually no radiant heat mean more comfortable and productive working conditions. That is good news for the environment too.
