CamPro™ Induction Heating Systems utilize patented SHarP-C™ (Stationary Hardening Process for Camshafts) hardening technology, which eliminates work piece rotation during the induction heat treating process. There are several practical, economical and technical benefits associated with this unique technology including; dramatically reduced maintenance cost, simple operation, longer tooling life, improved part quality and the potential elimination of post heat treat straightening operations.
Increased Production
Non-contact / Stationary Hardening
Only 1 moving part (Open/Close)
Increased throughput – Short heat times – less than 4 seconds
Production rates up to 90 parts/ hour
Improved Quality
Robust CNC machined inductors. No moving powered parts.
Virtually no distortion – Less than 10 microns due to short heat times
Potentially eliminate post straightening operation
Dramatically reduced need for aggressive post harden grinding
Reduced sensitivity to geometric deviations and cam positioning compared to scan hardening processes
Improved microstructure of hardened material
True contour pattern
Reduced Downtime
Production ready “quick change” pallet assembly for fast coil changeover
Improved tooling life
Modular design permits fast part changeovers
Reduced Operating Costs
Substantially reduced operating cost compared to scan hardening
Substantially reduced maintenance cost
50% less energy consumption compared to conventional induction heat treating
