  • Selectively adjustable transverse flux heating apparatus
    Patent number: 5403994
    Abstract: Transverse flux heating assembly for inductively heating a moving strip includes opposite spaced J-shaped conductors to form an inductive heating coil. The coils define a middle spacing therebetween which is unobstructed by flux guides to permit free translation movement between the conductors in a direction parallel to the strip width.
