The Powerhouse Duo: Thyristors (SCRs) and Diodes in Your Induction Furnace

Every induction melting furnace relies on a high-frequency alternating current (AC) to generate the magnetic field that melts metal. The standard industrial power line, however, delivers low-frequency AC. The critical job of converting this power falls to the Induction Furnace Power Supply, driven by an array of specialized high-power semiconductor components: Thyristors (Silicon Controlled Rectifiers) and Diodes. Part […]
