  2. Parallel Inverter
  3. Single tank capacitors
  4. C clamp yokes
  5. PLC in furnaces
  6. Low frequency for reduction of energy consumption
Some of the firsts for induction heating & hardening
  1. First medium frequency non-ferrous induction billet heater in India installed at ordinance factory Katni
  2. First induction rail hardening equipment of India supplied with integrated straightening unit
  3. First steel zone heating furnace of India supplied at ordinance factory Ambajahri
  4. First constant power factor Current Fed induction zone heaters of India supplied in Tata Motors
  5. First multiple TMT bar heater of India supplied for epoxy coating
…and many more.
Many design features which we are providing now (like Nano cable system, synchronized rectifier control board, low power efficiency system) is currently only under development with other brands.
