Induction heater levitation of molten copper and steel resonance lock

Levitation of aluminum or copper tubing is easy. I set out to develop an induction unit that could levitate and melt solid copper and steel. The unit uses microprocessor controlled resonance locking to find and maintain the proper frequency for the induction heating. The unit is capable of handling 10kw of power. The demonstration uses 8-10kw. Levitation of aluminum, which is less dense, requires only 1-1.5kw of power.

The video shows molten copper and steel being suspended. This takes a lot of power and a very stable induction unit.

hi i'm kanfa, i want to know your own website

[imsmoother]

@kanfagun yes. you can read how to build one at dbdbdb dat mindchallenger dat com slash inductionheater

THATS FUCKING BADDASS!

Do I need to become smart to do this?

@mgregggphone The resistance increase in this case is negligible for the eddy voltage generated hence current that does the job. Could also compensate for it by increasing the coil voltage.

Beautiful

That was cool!

[mrFishball1992]

@mgregggphone yes resistance increases with temp... i dun think he said otherwise... :) imsmoother love ur work :)

[mgregggphone]

Doesn't resistance increase with temp?

looks like a mini super nova machine

Felt like my face was going to explode just watching this...
