Ⅰ. Watch Internal Spline Induction Hardening in Operation
Video: Localized induction heating of internal spline teeth using a customized bore inductor.
The video shows a circular metal component with internal spline teeth machined into its central bore. A compact induction coil is positioned near the splined opening, directing heat toward the internal tooth region.
Trong quá trình nung nóng, the spline area becomes visibly red-hot while much of the surrounding component remains comparatively dark.
The demonstration highlights the use of a compact inductor for localized heating inside a toothed bore.

Ⅱ. Suitable Workpieces and Industrial Applications
Internal splines provide a mechanical connection between mating components for torque transmission. Their tooth surfaces may experience contact pressure, repeated loading and relative movement during operation.
For suitable hardenable steels, induction hardening can be used to treat selected spline surfaces without requiring the entire component to undergo the same hardening cycle.

Relevant Industries
Automotive and Drivetrain Manufacturing
Selected transmission and constant-velocity joint components contain internal splines. Induction hardening may be used where their design specifies localized hardened tooth surfaces.
Power Transmission Equipment
Splined hubs, couplings and related components transfer torque between connected shafts and assemblies. Surface hardening may be required according to their loading and wear conditions.
Construction and Heavy Machinery
Heavy-duty transmission components may incorporate internal splines. The required treatment depends on the steel grade, tooth geometry and operating conditions.
General Machinery Manufacturing
Custom splined sleeves, hubs and mechanical connections can also be evaluated for localized induction hardening.
The specific end use of the workpiece shown in the video has not been confirmed. These industries represent potential applications rather than verified uses of the demonstrated component.
Ⅲ. Customized Inductor Design for Internal Spline Hardening
Thiết kế cuộn cảm is a central consideration when heating internal spline teeth.
The tooth profile creates different electromagnetic coupling conditions at the tips, flanks and roots. A suitable inductor must work within the available bore space while producing a heating pattern appropriate to the specified hardened region.
Bore Geometry and Coil Clearance
The induction coil must be matched to the internal spline diameter, axial length, tooth profile and surrounding workpiece geometry.
Limited space inside the bore also affects coil construction, electrical connections and cooling arrangements.
Heating Distribution Across the Teeth
The required hardening pattern may cover the tooth flanks, rễ cây, tips or a specified combination of these surfaces.
Heating conditions are influenced by coil geometry, tần số vận hành, power and heating duration. These parameters must be evaluated together rather than selected independently.
A visibly heated spline does not establish that every part of the tooth profile has reached the required hardening condition.
Workpiece Fixtures and Positioning
The fixture supports and locates the workpiece relative to the inductor.
The mechanical arrangement must provide suitable access to the bore and maintain the required position during processing. Different spline sizes or profiles may require separate inductors and tooling.

Ⅳ. Heating Methods and Quenching Arrangement
The appropriate hardening method depends on spline length, required treatment area, material and production conditions.
Stationary Induction Heating
In a stationary arrangement, the workpiece and inductor remain at a defined relative position during heating.
This method may be suitable for a relatively short treatment region when the coil can produce the required heating pattern.
Scanning Induction Hardening
For longer spline bores or a defined axial treatment length, relative movement between the workpiece and inductor may be required.
The heating power, scanning speed and quenching sequence must be coordinated to obtain the specified hardened region.
The demonstrated video does not establish whether a complete stationary or scanning hardening sequence was used.
Quenching the Internal Spline Surfaces
For suitable hardenable steels, the required surface region must reach the appropriate austenitizing condition before controlled quenching produces the intended hardened structure.
Internal tooth geometry affects how the quenchant reaches the heated surfaces. The cooling arrangement must therefore account for the tooth profile, bore access, required hardened depth and dimensional requirements.
Depending on the selected process, the system may use an integrated heating and quenching inductor assembly or a separate quenching arrangement.
The final hardness profile depends on the combined heating and quenching conditions, not on the induction power supply alone.
Ⅴ. Induction Hardening Equipment and Control Configuration
KOTRON supplies induction hardening equipment solutions that combine the heating system, customized tooling, quenching equipment and necessary control functions.
The equipment scope is selected according to the workpiece, hardening specification and production requirements.
| System Component | Cân nhắc về cấu hình |
|---|---|
| Nguồn Điện Cảm Ứng | Power and frequency selected for the workpiece and heating requirements |
| Internal Bore Inductor | Customized to the spline profile, bore dimensions and treatment area |
| Vật cố định phôi | Ủng hộ, locating and clamping arrangement |
| Hệ thống làm nguội | Quenchant delivery and cooling conditions matched to the process |
| Motion System | Stationary positioning or scanning movement where required |
| CNC / PLC Control | Coordination of heating, movement and quenching operations |
| Equipment Cooling | Cooling arrangement matched to the electrical equipment and inductor |
| Production Automation | Đang tải, unloading and handling according to production needs |
Induction Power Supply and Digital Control
The power supply must be electrically matched to the selected inductor and provide the required heating output.
KOTRON’s available equipment includes DSP-controlled induction power supplies. According to the selected configuration, digital control supports regulation of heating parameters such as power, current and operating time.
For applications requiring production records, optional monitoring functions may include operating-parameter display, đường cong quá trình, parameter-limit alarms and historical records.
These functions assist process supervision but do not directly establish the finished workpiece’s hardness or effective case depth.
Reference Induction Power Supply Models
Several induction power supply models are available for evaluating internal spline hardening applications. The appropriate selection depends on the spline geometry, vật liệu, diện tích gia cố cần thiết, case depth and production cycle.
The following models provide reference configurations for initial equipment selection.
| Người mẫu | Công suất | Dải Tần Số | Potential Application |
|---|---|---|---|
| XG-80 | 80 kW | 20–40 kHz | Smaller internal spline components |
| XZG-160SCZ | 160 kW | 1–50 kHz | Medium-sized internal spline applications |
| ZG-200SCN | 200 kW | 5–20 kHz | Larger internal spline and internal-tooth components |
| XZG-250SCN | 250 kW | 5–20 kHz | Larger workpieces with higher heating power requirements |
These configurations are provided as selection references rather than fixed recommendations for particular spline sizes.
The required power and frequency must be evaluated together with the inductor design, heating conditions and quenching process. A higher power rating does not automatically provide greater case depth or a more uniform hardened profile.
The power supply used in the video demonstration has not been identified as one of these models.
Specialized Power Supply Options
For certain tooth profiles, simultaneous dual-frequency heating may be evaluated to influence heating distribution across the tooth geometry.
Its suitability for internal splines depends on the workpiece, inductor and required hardening pattern. The demonstrated video does not establish the use of dual-frequency technology.
Where hardening and tempering are required in a coordinated production process, suitable multi-station and multi-frequency arrangements may also be evaluated.
Machine Movement and Automation
The mechanical arrangement may range from a manually loaded heating station to an integrated hardening system with controlled movement and automated handling.
Possible project-specific functions include programmable positioning, quét, tự động tải và dỡ hàng, and coordinated heating and quenching control.
The required configuration depends on component size, tốc độ sản xuất, changeover requirements and existing production facilities.
Ⅵ. Selecting the Right Equipment for Internal Spline Teeth
Equipment selection begins with the internal spline geometry and the required hardening result.
The bore diameter alone is not sufficient to determine the induction power, frequency or coil design.

Hardness and Case-Depth Verification
For components requiring a defined hardness profile, the process should be established through suitable trials and inspection.
Depending on the specification, verification may include surface hardness measurements, hardness traverses and examination of the hardened layer.
Inspection positions should reflect the required functional surfaces of the spline, including the tooth flanks and roots where specified.
Results established for another gear, spline or internal bore cannot automatically be applied to a new workpiece.
For internal splines and other internal bores, KOTRON also offers a dedicated máy làm cứng cảm ứng lỗ khoan bên trong for automotive and motorcycle precision components. Externally splined shafts can be treated with the spline shaft induction hardening machine.
