History of Metallurgy Induction Heating

History of Metallurgy Induction Heating

Before 3500 B.C. Egyptians worked with copper

Stone Age-  3 different periods, prehistoric human development

  • Paleolithic/Old Stone Age – rudimentary chipped stone tools
  • Mesolithic/ Middle Stone Age- chipped stone tools and small stone tools to be mounted
  •  Neolithic/ New Stone Age-polished stone tools by grinding and polishing

Bronze Age-  characterized by bronze, proto writing, urban civilization

  • Near East- 3300 BC-1200 BC
  • South Asia 3000 BC-1200 BC
  •  Europe 3200 BC-600 BC
  • China 2000-700 BC

Iron Age- prevalent use of iron

  •  New East- 1200 BC- 500 BC
  • India 1200BC- 500BC

Late Modern – 1800-1945

  • Industrialization effects technology, social economic groups, and cultural changes
  •  European Revolts

  • Slavery and Abolitionism

1800’s Michael Faraday over served heating of transformer and motor windings

1846- metal studied by Henry Clifton Sorby

1916 first constructive use of induction to melt metals

1930’s high frequency motors-generator sets created

1946 Edwin Cady uses basic types of induction equipment

1948- General Electric invests in technology and research

1950s- now- process adapted for production of missiles, beams, die casting , and other usesinduction-metallurgy-09
