Induction furnaces have several advantages, but they also come with a significant disadvantage.
What is the Disadvantage of Induction Furnace? (5 Key Points to Consider)
1. Lack of Refining Capacity
The primary disadvantage of an induction furnace is its lack of refining capacity.
2. Clean Materials Required
This means that the materials placed in the furnace must be clean of oxidation products and of a known composition.
3. Alloying Elements May Be Lost
Due to this limitation, some alloying elements may be lost during the melting process due to oxidation.
4. Re-adding Alloying Elements
These lost elements need to be re-added to the melt, which can complicate the process and potentially affect the final composition of the metal.
5. Precise Control Needed
This step requires precise measurements and control to ensure that the correct amounts of each element are added back into the melt to achieve the desired composition.
