Albina Co. adds induction heating capabilities

Albina Co. Inc., a bender of pipe, tube, structural steel, and plate located in Tualatin, Ore., now offers induction heating capabilities.

The company has used heat to bend materials for decades, using alternatives to the actual process of induction heating. Now it is applying an induction heat source to its recently upgraded increment hot bending process.

The new heating source and bending process expands the types of materials and radii that the company can bend. It also allows the firm to meet the induction-only heating requirements that certain projects specify.
