Pillar’s original quench & temper lines are still operating today. Not only are they still operating, they have 90% uptime. These units, with proper maintenance, are real workhorses for industry.

• high efficiency induction coils
• dual frequency operation for pipes with upsets
• high volume quench systems
• complete turnkey solutions

Continuous heating for coatings / curing of tube, pipe encompasses a wide range of applications including paint, bonding, powdered coatings and galvanizing. The efficient non-contact heating results in significant energy savings and shorter line lengths than gas or infrared.

• direct and efficient heating of the pipe surface
• capable of high production rates
• minimal line length required

Induction heating is an ideal technology for your tube or pipe bending and forming needs. The localized heating and direct coupling into the tube or pipe minimizes the heat in the local environment, for increased operator safety and comfort.

Tube/Pipe bending equipment ratings (power and frequency) vary greatly, from one system to the next. The tube/pipe product mix and production rates determine which system is optimum for your requirements. Let us simulate your application and provide a quotation for Pillar’s Induction Solution.

The equipment configuration is tailored to your specific layout. Provide us with a layout, and we will find a way to implement the solution.

Pillar’s Induction heating process is an ideal technology for any of your Tube/Pipe annealing needs. A laminated coil assembly along with an appropriately rated power supply (power and frequency) provides rapid and even heating of the tube/pipe seam for maximum product quality. Multiple in-line coils allow for higher production rates and better temperature uniformity.

The seam annealing system includes a mechanized induction coil assembly. The assembly has automatic detection of a misaligned tube, and will raise the coil assembly to avoid damage.

The equipment configuration is tailored to your specific layout. Provide us with a layout, and we will find a way to implement the solution.

• Lift mechanism prevents coil damage during production
• Vertical adjustment of +/-1″ from pendant
• Fine horizontal adjustment of +/2″ from pendant

 Pipe Upset Induction heating is an ideal technology for your Tube/Pipe upsetting needs. An appropriately rated power supply (power and frequency) provides rapid and even heating of the tube/pipe end for maximum upsetting quality. Multiple parallel coils allow for higher production rates and better temperature uniformity. Additional features such as infrared sensors and PID loop control provide additional quality and system flexibility.

The equipment power and frequency rating vary greatly, from one upsetting system to the next. The tube/pipe product mix and production rates determine which system is optimum for your requirements. Let us simulate your application and provide a quotation for Pillar’s Induction Solution.
