Induction melting relies on using a conductive metal, placed into a non- conductive crucible which is well insulated. The crucible is then placed inside an induction coil (See picture) and the current is activated to reduce the material to a liquid.
Melting is usually used in casting operations, which requires the metal to be in its molten form prior to forming.
The benefit of induction melting, is the clean and consistent results which are achieved.
