Coupling Removal by Electromagnetic Induction Heating

  Coupling removal by induction heating is a process of using an electric current to generate heat in a metal object, such as a coupling hub, and then applying a pulling force to separate it from another object, such as a motor shaft. Induction heating is a fast, safe, and efficient way to remove couplings without damaging the components or creating an open flame.

  There are different types of induction heating systems that can be used for coupling removal, depending on the size, shape, and material of the coupling hub. The KETCHAN’s air-cooled induction heater, which can heat up to 1,000 degrees Fahrenheit and can be used for couplings.

Some of the benefits of using induction heating for coupling removal are:

  • It can remove thick and hard coatings from the coupling hub, such as epoxy, paint, or asbestos.
  • It can reduce the risk of distortion, cracking, or warping of the coupling hub due to uneven heating or cooling.
  • It can save time and money by eliminating the need for shipping the motor to a shop or using a boat run.
  • It can improve safety and environmental compliance by avoiding open flames, sparks, fumes, or noise.
