Energy Required to Melt Steel: Complete Guide for Induction Furnace Efficiency, Power Consumption & Spare Parts

Melting 1 ton of steel theoretically requires 380 kWh, but most induction furnaces consume 450–600 kWh due to heat losses, worn spare parts, and inefficiencies. This guide breaks down the complete energy calculation and explains how proper furnace maintenance and quality spare parts can significantly reduce your electricity costs. Steel melting is one of the […]

Low Power / Slow Melt in an Induction Furnace? Parts to Check First (Capacitors, Yokes, Cooling, Cables)

Low Power / Slow Melt in an Induction Furnace? Parts to Check First (Capacitors, Yokes, Cooling, Cables)

When an induction furnace takes longer than normal to melt—without any obvious breakdown—most foundries call it “low power” or “slow melt.” The mistake is to immediately suspect the power supply only. In reality, slow melting is often caused by a few common spare parts that gradually degrade: capacitors, yoke laminations, cooling components, and water-cooled cables. […]
