ABSTRACT:
A narrow susceptor is incorporated into the die in the vicinity of a bondline between two or more parts in an induction heating workcell. When the induction coil of the workcell is energized, the susceptor heats and preferentially heats the parts near the bondline. The preferential heating is localized at the bondline and reduces energy losses otherwise expended to heat large thermal masses in the workcell or to heat the entire parts.
