## How is induction used for medical device manufacture?
Ambrell's induction heating systems provide medical device manufacturers with reliable, repeatable, non-contact heat, with control and accuracy focusing energy to a specific part area.
Induction generates an electromagnetic field in a work coil that induces currents in the conductive material of a workpiece placed within or near the coil. Friction from these currents elevates the temperature of the workpieces to be heated.

## Benefits of Using Induction in Medical Device Manufacture
Induction meets tight production tolerances delivering precise localized heat to small areas creating pinpoint accuracy. The process increases production rates with faster heating cycles, reduces defect rates with repeatable, reliable heat and eliminates variability from operator-to-operator, shift-to-shift.
