(29d) Radio Frequency Applications in Industrial Processes

Radio Frequency (RF) heating is used in many industrial processes to significantly increase production and improve product quality. Any industrial processes requiring heating, curing and drying is a potential application for RF technology. This paper will cover the benefits of RF processing and review how these benefits have been realized in specific industrial applications. By understanding the benefits of RF technology with real world applications, industrial customers can evaluate how their processes might benefit from the use of RF technology.
