Smarter Heat, Leaner Manufacturing: How Simulation Transforms Induction Heating into a High-Yield Process (EU/IN Session)

As manufacturing companies face rising costs and global trade pressures, improving key industrial processes has become critical. Induction heating remains one of the most energy-intensive and capital-driven steps in the production of high-performance components. It is widely used across industries, including automotive, aerospace, heavy machinery, and precision equipment manufacturing. Virtually every high-strength, wear-critical part, such as gears, shafts, bearings, joints, and housings, undergoes some form of induction heating.

Despite its widespread use, induction heating processes are often under-optimized, leading to excessive energy consumption, dimensional variation, and unnecessary rework. This presents a significant opportunity for simulation-driven engineering to reduce cost, improve quality, and increase operational efficiency.

Conventional trial-and-error methods for coil design and process setup are time-consuming and costly. Simulation platforms like JMAG allow engineers to model electromagnetic fields, thermal profiles, material phase transitions, and mechanical responses with high precision. This enables virtual optimization of coil geometry, frequency, and heating time before physical trials begin. The result is lower energy usage, improved first-pass yield, and reduced part rejection and downtime.

Join this presentation to discover how manufacturers across sectors are using JMAG to turn induction heating from a cost driver into a precision-controlled, high-yield process.
