Induction heating equipment includes induction heating power supply and quenching inductor (quenching induction coil). The power supply is provided by the induction heating power supply, and the quenching inductor generates a high-frequency alternating magnetic field. According to Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction, the workpiece in the magnetic field generates induced current.

The single-piece processing time is long, especially when the workpiece is large in size, the process of replacing the workpiece is relatively complex, and it is time-consuming and laborious to process batch workpieces, which greatly reduces the work efficiency. Moreover, the cooling method is single, the cooling efficiency is low, and the quenching processing efficiency of the workpiece is low.
