Playing with induction heater for brass annealer project

  • I had my mind on making brass annealer using induction heater for some time and finally ordered beefy power supply. Video abruptly ends as my phone runs out of memory. I plan to make a tighter coil and put water through it to prevent the coil from heating up.

    That is a total different way Annealing your brass Keep us informed on how it’s working out good to see another video from your brother

    Gong to build a full blown GinaErick style induction annealer? Some people have built fully automated induction annealing machines
    I was looking into this at one point and saw that a lot water cooling the loop. I ended up getting a Ballistic Recreations salt bath annealer, but haven't gotten around to using it yet.

    Класс! И не надо тратить много денег на простую, по сути, машинку!))

    Thats a cool project. I’ve got a full size automotive inductor that I use to remove rusted bolts. I didn’t realize it worked with non-ferrous metals? I think I’ll see how it works for annealing. Thanks for getting the old brane turning:)

      Yep, it works on brass but less effective. The efficiency should increase when I wind new coil with less diameter for concentrated effect. I also can use this to anneal my gas check punches, should make it very simple.

      Dima Prok. I use the flexible cable the most. Its cheap enough and you can easily make whatever diameter you want.

    I'm building the same thing it's a must to have water cooling thru the work coil/tubing

      Yep, I learned that lesson when it burned out :) lol

    Also your right from what I've found you want the cartridge to fill 1/3 of the coil I've seen #12 copper wire with a high temp white sleeve that worked fast

      I found a thread that details the key information I was missing at the time of the video. I picked up the project again recently and will post updated video. I was able to successfully anneal in 4 seconds 223 brass but working to solve PCB overheating issue.

    Make a smaller diameter coil.

      Yep! I found that out later, but haven't got around making new video. It works with brass.

    Use a contactor so it only heats when a case is present also you don't need that big of a coil to sneak the brass neck good video

      I was going to wind my own coil, I got thinner copper tube as well as solid thick copper wire, I also ordered high temp sleeve to protect the coil from heat but my induction board died sadly. At this point I think I'll build Aneelez type machine, it's less complicated. I've seen youtube video and ordered main parts long time long time ago, it's just a matter of making one.

    Интересно очень, спасибо! А дальше получилось внедрить обжигалку?

      Скоро эта плата сгорела без оxлаждения. Я заказал другую на 1800 Ват и водяное охлаждение по медной трубке, служит до сиx пор, закаливаю мелкие детали но честно 500 в блок питания не хватает, давно уже планировал заказать 1000 ват, выпала хороший дил на 2400 ват но требует 240 вольт а нас 120 так я вот застрял нужно менять рубильники и проводку сделать но испытывал предварительно, работает зверски :) деталь накалилась так что ослепляла, даже засчитная ткань почернела и деталь просто была испорченна, надо будет поставить другую спираль трубку с пошире диаметром.

    It shouldn't even matter if it was getting hot if it were actually properly thermally isolated. Just give it appropriate housing instead of laying it on the carpet

    • @DimaProk
      @DimaProk  5 років тому

      it ended up dying on me, I am guessing something overheated and fried, I even bought sleeve for coil but haven't installed on time.

    I answered your question on one of my vids, for some good ideas/info see forum.accurateshooter.com/threads/induction-brass-annealer-redux.3908353/
    Tons of great info, very long thread.
    You can insulate the coil from grounding with lacquer clearcoat or similar.
    To run at near 100% duty you need to water cool the coil and what works best is several glue on heatsinks on the bottom of the induction board near the capacitor leads with a good fan.

    It's drawing at idle because there's a metal dish under it -_-

    • @DimaProk
      @DimaProk  5 років тому

      Nah, it's too far away to make a difference, I'll have to retest it but I am pretty sure I was getting same draw without the dish too.

    I’m looking forward to seeing the water cooled version.
