Induction heating system for deck straightening
The Terac deck straightening system brings the cost, safety, and environmental benefits of induction heating to shipyards.
Introduction
A proven turnkey solution, the Terac only needs an electricity supply, and it is ready to start work. Terac is ideal for deck and bulkhead straightening and cuts straightening times by as much as 80% compared to flame heating. Through-heating of steel decks and bulkheads is rapid, for example, 8 mm in only 8 seconds.
- Fast, easy, precise, and repeatable heating
- Easy to learn adds to maximum operator efficiency
- Extensive work range – 45 m radius, or 60 m with extension
Operators can work with Terac within a 45m radius of the base unit. An optional extension unit lengthens the work area to 60m radius.

ENRX Terac systems are specially designed for ship straightening. Each Terac includes a frequency converter, cooling system, operator panel and deck-heating unit.
-
Terac components are designed and built to last in tough shipyard environments.
-
Note the easy-to-use controls placed on the handle. It usually takes only a couple of hours to train an operator to use the Terac system.

Induction heating is widely used to straighten ship decks and bulkheads.
-
An ENRX Terac system ensures failsafe operation—it makes it impossible to overheat magnetic steel.
-
Terac works just as well on bulkheads and other vertical structures as it does on decks.
-
For added ergonomic comfort, the handheld transformer can be attached to a balancer and suspended from a magnet or wire rope.
