Abstract (en)
A method and apparatus for 360 DEG induction heating of a can body to cure or partially cure a protective coating applied thereto. The can bodies are inductively heated by placing them in a medium frequency, oscillating magnetic field generated by a multiple turn induction coil helically wound around the transport path of the can body. By using a medium-frequency field and by centering the can bodies with respect to the induction coil, the can bodies may be evenly and uniformly heated around 360 DEG of their circumference. <IMAGE>
