The SKF TWIM series induction heater is a factory-built unit designed to heat bearings and fitting parts before mounting. It heats by induction, without flame or direct contact, which allows the part to expand in a controlled way and makes it easier to place on the shaft. It is a key tool in industrial maintenance, where correct mounting defines the service life of the bearing. MR Accesorios Industriales carries this line as part of its range of mounting and maintenance tools.

The TWIM series designation reads as a model code: the letters identify the heater category and the number that follows indicates the capacity or the size of the part it can heat. The -BAG suffix indicates that the unit is supplied with an accessory kit or bag of components for different applications. For example, model TWIM 15-BAG corresponds to a unit of that capacity, with its set of accessories. To choose the correct model, you must cross-reference the code with the dimensions and weight of the part to be mounted.

These heaters are used in production plants, maintenance workshops and rotating equipment repair services. They are common in industries such as food, chemical, cement, steel and mining, where large bearings are mounted with an interference fit. They are also used to heat bushings, lock rings, pulleys and other parts that need to expand to fit into their housing without blows or hydraulic presses.

To select the right heater, take into account the outside diameter and weight of the part, the type of fit and the mounting temperature recommended by the bearing manufacturer. Induction heating allows the temperature to be controlled and prevents overheating that alters the heat treatment of the steel. During mounting, check alignment and clearance once the part cools, and lubricate as applicable. Always follow the unit's instructions for safe use.

Induction heaters from different brands are interchangeable in their function, but not in their accessories or their electronics. When requesting a quote, it is worth comparing the heating capacity, the temperature range and the control devices offered by each model. In the local market, the SKF TWIM series is a reference for factories that need repetitive, controlled mounting. If you have doubts about equivalence with another unit, ask us with the code and the dimensions of the part.
