Shrinkfitting Auto Turbo Charger Impeller Blades onto an Aluminum Shaft

From Ambrell

A split two turn helical coil is used to evenly heat the opening on the impeller blade. The impeller blade is heated for 20 seconds to reach the 200 ºF (93 ºC). The impeller blades are then removed from the coil & slipped over the shaft to complete the shrink fitting application.
