Ameritherm Inc., a leader in 100% solid state radio-frequency (RF) induction heating, premiers the more powerful 3.5 kW and 5 kW versions of its popular HOTSHOT™ RF power supplies. Based on the proven technology of the popular 1 kW and 2 kW units, this family of remarkably easy-to-use power sources provides precision induction heating for manufacturing processes requiring quick, clean sources of heat.
These new HOTSHOT models produce 3.5 kW or 5 kW of heating power from 150 kHz to 400 kHz for applications that require higher power. With a small footprint, compact dimensions of 17" x 21" x 5 1/4" and weight of just 35 lbs, these HOTSHOTs are truly portable. "They were designed to provide extremely high value to our customers. By using the very latest technology, the architecture is exceptionally efficient in terms of reduced complexity and increased capability," says Skip Thompson, Vice President of Engineering at Ameritherm. The design incorporates Ameritherm's renowned full functionality and the unit is priced at a fraction of prevailing market rates. Customers are experiencing shortened return on investment (ROI) times amplified by unparalleled reliability and rapid implementation.
The HOTSHOT is typically used to heat electrically conductive metals. The HOTSHOT series has been used extensively in the automotive, aerospace, fastener, fiber optic and medical industries in applications such as annealing, melting, hermetic sealing, epoxy curing and brazing.
