SHRINK FITTING

By heating or cooling one component before assembly and allowing it to return to the ambient temperature after assembly, the phenomenon of thermal expansion makes a joint.

Interpower Induction builds systems to pre-heat metal components between 150˚C and 300˚C, causing them to expand and allowing for the insertion or removal of another component.

Systems can be manually loaded or can be completely automated with part placement, insertion with cool down included. Our standard lift fixture can single shot heat in seconds to any desired temperature using a timer and can be verified by an optical pyrometer.

Interpower engineers design shrink fit systems that are simple and robust!
