This is a picture of one of the billets coming out of the furnace after the system is up and running. This piece goes down a conveyor and is placed in several presses that stamp a crank shaft for use in car engines.
This is the DC drive that I worked on last week and yesterday. This is a forge application the company make crank shafts. The line has approx 20inch long steel billets being moved through an induction furnace by this drive.
