The tools are installed and removed from the holders using the
induction heating tool I mentioned. I don't have this, so I only know
of its existence, no direct experience with it.


I'm retired now but before my retirement, my partner Garett Churchill
and I manufactured and marketed small but powerful induction heaters
called the Roy. I did and still do to a certain extend, design all
the products. The highest power Roy was 5kW but there's a 10kW unit
sitting in my lab waiting on a round tuit.

At least for now, the Roy is retired too. I got tired of spending
every day in the lab!

I designed a smaller unit (about 1kW) for use by ammunition reloaders
to anneal the mouth of the cartridge before passing the case through
the forming die. It has a built-in timer (settable to 0.1 sec,
accurate to 1 microsecond) so the reloaded can get the same results
every time.


If you have an "inexpensive" induction heater for cartridge
brass.... you can sell a gazillion of them.



This heater which we call the Annie, should do your tool holder
heating just fine. I believe his price is still under $500. Contact
him at or go to http://www.fluxeon.com.

Meanwhile, feel free to ask me any induction heating-related technical
questions.
