Induction Melting Furnace for Steel from China

A laboratory-grade induction furnace designed for melting small batches of steel alloys in research settings. It functions by electromagnetic induction to generate heat through dielectric loss in the metal charge. Classified under HTS 8514.20.80.00 as an 'other' industrial or laboratory furnace operating by induction.

Import Tips

Verify furnace power rating and induction coil specifications to confirm classification under 8514.20; provide technical datasheets

Ensure CE marking or equivalent for electrical safety compliance; declare exact frequency range (e.g

1-10 kHz)

Avoid misclassification as general electric ovens (8514.10); document induction heating mechanism to prevent reclassification
