Thyristor is commonly known as silicon controlled thyristor. The difference between a thyristor and a diode is that it can control on and off. A represents the anode, K represents the cathode, and G represents the control electrode.

Induction forging furnaces continue to drive the market in the foundry industry. The design and operation of induction forges continue to improve as smelters look for newer and more cost-effective methods for steel melting. According to the World Steel Association, global production of steel in 2018 stood at 1.81 billion tonnes. The increase in production excerpt …

In production, annealing is a commonly used preparatory heat treatment process. It can eliminate internal stress and component structure heterogeneity in castings and forgings, improve and adjust the mechanical properties of steel, and prepare the structure for the next process. Steel annealing is to heat the steel to an appropriate temperature, maintain it for a excerpt …

Silver is a precious metal used to make jewelry, electronics, medical equipment, and even currency. It has the highest electrical and thermal conductivity levels compared to other elements and metals. That is why induction works very well when melting silver. The controlled heat temperatures are excellent for metals that require high temperatures without an actual excerpt …

Melting furnaces are used to overheat solid materials until they liquefy. Often, thermal processing equipment is used to alter the surface or internal characteristics of materials by carefully elevating their temperature. In the case of metals, this typically increases ductility at the expense of both hardness and strength. This requires an industrial furnace capable of excerpt …

The fundamental difference between melting and smelting is that melting is a process in which the state of a substance is changed from solid to liquid by heating it, while smelting is a process of obtaining pure metal from its ore by heating it to a higher temperature. In this article, we will explore all excerpt …
