PRUFTECHNIK not only supplies premium alignment systems for aligning machines and shafts, but also the right induction heating tools for mounting bearings on shafts. The benefits of induction heating include safety, efficiency, and overall energy savings.
EDDYTHERM Portable can be used for all bearings and work pieces with an inner diameter of min. 20 mm (0.78 inches) and a weight of up to 10 kg (22 lbs). The maximum induction heat is 180°C (356°F), protecting your bearings against overheating and damage. The workpiece is placed onto the cone shaped heating surface. The integrated time and temperature regulation capability ensures that the workpiece is heated evenly with no risk of overheating.
How does induction heating work? In just a few minutes, the bearings are preheated by induction so that that they expand and glide effortlessly onto the shaft. When the bearing cools down, it assumes its original size and thus guarantees the desired tight fit on the shaft. Due to the induction heat, all tolerances and material properties are maintained without loss. No further work steps are necessary. EDDYTHERM Portable is a safe induction heating tool that only heats the work piece, not the tool itself.

EDDYTHERM 2x handles work pieces and bearings up to 80 kg (176 lbs). These can be heated up to 240°C (465°F) by induction. Available options: 200 – 575V at 50/60Hz.

VIBGUARD compact offers six measuring channels for continuous monitoring. It is perfectly suited for fast and highly dynamic equipment. In particular, the VIBGUARD compact meets the requirements of critical assets that are characterized by high availability, high aggregate values, complex drives and changing operating conditions.
Whether pre-installed in an IP65 compact housing or as a switch cabinet system module, the VIBGUARD compact is perfect for diagnostic condition monitoring of individual extruders, large fans, multiphase or vacuum pumps, turbocompressors, mill stands, or centrifuges.
All six measuring channels are designed as highly dynamic analog input channels and can be equipped with either standard ICP vibration sensors or with voltage input signals for process variables. They provide in depth diagnostic data such as time signals or envelope signals, and up to 6 characteristic values such as vibration characteristic or bearing condition.
The ‘Intelligent Event Recorder’ stores relevant results, fully automatically and continuously, providing the basis for comprehensive machine diagnostics. Its MQTT protocol enables the seamless integration to any IIoT manufacturing environment with highly secure data transfer
