Tucker Induction Systems, Inc., is known as the problem solvers in the induction heating industry. Tucker is also well known as the designer of the industry's first interchangeable quick-change coils for two-turns and single shot designs with correct clamping pressure. These make induction heating systems more efficient by allowing operators to only change coils, quenches or buses as needed rather than replace the entire assembly. This speeds set-up and minimizes downtime. This innovation made coil updates, part changeovers and repairs easier, faster and more economical.
Automotive OEMs, Tier Suppliers, Off Highway Vehicle Manufacturers and Farm Implement Equipment Suppliers are Tucker Induction Systems main customer base. Appliance, Tooling and general metalworking manufacturers are also users of Tucker induction heating equipment. For more information contact:
