Inductoforge® Modular Billet Heating System Inductoforge ® Modular Billet Heating Systems by Inductoheat The Inductoforge® Modular Billet Heating System disrupted the induction forging industry nearly 17 years ago, as the first to offer independently controlled power modules and use them to precisely control billet temperatures. Today, the Inductoforge® continues to redefine the forging industry by offering the latest advancements such as, true “stopped line” stand-by function, automated billet push-out systems, and next-generation forging coil design. The Inductoforge® gives our customers exactly what they want.... more reliability, more efficiency, and more control over their production. Visit booth #313 to see the Inductoforge® Heating System in person.

DEFORM® The DEFORM® system is the premier engineering software for the analysis of metal forming and heating processes. Popular applications including hot/warm forging, cold forming, rolling, heat treatment, machining and mechanical joining. The finite- element analysis software allows trials to be performed on the computer instead of the shop floor. Companies ranging from large multi-national corporations to small family-owned businesses have relied on DEFORM for decades. It is trusted for its unique combination of state-of-the- art technology, easy-to-use interfaces and world-class support. Countless companies have achieved shorter lead times, lower costs and improved quality thanks to DEFORM solutions. To see DEFORM in action, please visit Scientific Forming Technologies at booth #215.

PULS Solution The future of cold forming – Henkel’s next generation Boron- free PULS solution. Cold forming is well established process for manufacturing metal components with high tensile strengths to very close tolerances and high accuracy. The extreme surface pressures involved have made lubrication an essential to cold forming, but the traditional Zinc Phosphate coating process is complex, requiring numerous stages and the use of corrosive chemicals. Henkel’s breakthrough innovation transformed cold forming, with the introduction of PULS, an alternative process that reduces waste, costs and complexity.Thanks to an exclusive polymer lubrication coating – Bonderite L-FM FL – the PULS process offers a simpler and more cost-effective approach that reduces the stages in cold forming to just three steps. Visit booth #512 to find out more about Henkel’s Boron-free PULS solution.
