Drum Heating Machine

How Does a Drum Heater Work?

A drum heater operates on induction heating principles. Instead of heating the air or using direct flames, electromagnetic fields are generated around the drum. These fields create heat directly inside the drum walls, which is then evenly distributed to the stored material.

Here’s why this process is more efficient than traditional heating:

• Direct heating – No need for external elements that waste energy.
• Fast response time – Drums reach the required temperature quickly.
• Safe operation – No flames, smoke, or hazardous emissions.
• Precise control – Adjustable temperature settings for sensitive materials.

With AB Induction’s smart control systems, you can fine-tune the heating process for maximum efficiency, ensuring consistent product quality and reduced operational downtime.

What Are Drum Heaters Used For?

Drum heaters are widely used in industries where temperature-sensitive materials need to be stored, processed, or transported. Some common uses include:

• Reducing the viscosity of oils, waxes, bitumen, and heavy fluids makes them easier to pump and process.
• Heating solid and semi-solid materials such as resins, adhesives, greases, and food-grade materials.
• Maintaining consistent temperatures in stored liquids to prevent crystallization or spoilage.
• Pre-heating drums before filling, ensuring smooth flow during packaging and production.

By using drum heaters, industries achieve better material handling, reduced wastage, and improved production speed.
