Shrink fitting is the mechanical assembly of two pieces with a tight fit. Depending on the application, some assemblies must be made hot, thanks to induction heating.
The main advantages of thermal shrink fitting are the reduction of residual stresses and strains. It also controls the quality of the assembly.
