Abstract

Device for the induction heating of flat metallic products on the move with the aid of electrical coils provided on magnetic armatures arranged on either side of the large faces of the product to be heated, which moves continuously between the said coils, wherein the inductors are mechanically independent of each other and they are arranged symmetrically in relation to the median plane of the product so that the magnetic fields generated are in phase opposition, leading to a ring-like distribution of the currents induced in the product to be heated up.
