Induction Heating Automation, Design, & Manufacturing Solutions
Looking to add induction heating automation for your current production lines? Let our dedicated team at Induction Technology Solutions work with you to design an effective process for your particular needs.
With well over 80 years of combined engineering and manufacturing experience in the induction heating industry, we have the experience to design and implement semi or fully-automated induction heating systems which can be integrated into your existing production lines. Contact our experts today so we can learn more about your processes and challenges.
Solving Key Industry Challenges With Automated Induction Heating
Enabling Cost-Effective Upgrades
Automated Systems integrate with induction machines, providing benefits such as:
- Improved production consistency, repeatability, and faster production throughput (cycle times)
- Reasonable ROI for implementing semi or full automation solutions
- Significantly improved quality control
We can always start small, for instance by implementing semi hand-fed automation and then upgrade and enhance to semi and full automation production cells.
Tailoring Automated Induction Heating for Your Application
Our team would love to learn more about your specific application requirements so that, together, we can work on designing and building a semi or fully automated system prototype that can be tweaked in the prototype stage before implementing into your specific production environment.
Common applications that use automated induction heating:
- Soldering: We can gladly work with you to develop semi or fully automatic soldering systems with optional automatic solder wire feeding and real-time temperature control
- Annealing: Automated annealing stations can handle the whole cycle, from loading billets vertically or horizontally into the coil, to heating them to the proper temperature, then finally removing them for the next cycle
- Brazing: Automated brazing systems can precisely position components, apply brazing filler material, and control heating cycles for consistent joint quality
Common industries that use automated induction systems:
- Automotive: Induction Bonding for EV Motors & Hardening gears and drive components
- Aerospace: Brazing critical parts, tricky materials such as Aluminum
- Medical: Bonding and Precision joining in device manufacturing
- Energy: Pipe coating and joining
- Electronics: Soldering and assembly processes
Whether you need to add automation to manual equipment or upgrade from semi-automatic to fully automatic operation, we'll design a solution that fits your current and future setup, and production needs.
Real-World Automation Solutions
Automated Soldering Stations
An automated soldering station delivers precision and consistency by combining inductive heating with controlled solder application. The system heats each workpiece to its exact target temperature, then applies a predetermined amount of solder, ensuring identical results for every cycle. This level of repeatability eliminates the variability that often occurs with manual soldering operations.
The system is designed for simplicity and efficiency. After initial setup, the operator simply presses the Start-Cycle button to initiate the automated sequence. The system then independently completes both the heating and soldering cycles without requiring constant supervision. This "set it and forget it" capability means operators don't need to monitor each step of the process.

Maximizing Your Dual-Output System with Automation
Enhanced Production Control and Monitoring
Our Dual-Alternate or Simultaneous Output Induction Heating Systems can be equipped with highly accurate infrared pyrometers to continuously measure and monitor workpiece temperatures across both production lines, in real time. All production data are automatically logged and can be uploaded to your existing database systems for real-time analysis, quality documentation, and process repeatability. This ensures consistent results, whether you're running one line or two.
Increased Throughput and Built-In Redundancy
The Dual-Output configuration allows you to run two production lines, effectively doubling your throughput with a single power supply. When combined with automation, operators can efficiently manage both lines, starting an automated cycle on one output while setting up or monitoring the other. Additionally, this system provides built-in redundancy: if one production line requires maintenance or experiences downtime, automation enables quick switching to the second output, minimizing production interruptions and maximizing uptime.
