Induction furnace plays a very important role in the melting of high metal & metallic alloys. This furnace has an ability to quickly and efficiently heating of the material without being in physical contact. Such kind of heating mechanisms offers appropriate technology solutions to many industrial problems. In this work, we are interested in modelling & simulation of an induction furnace in the foundry 4.0 context. Which uses modern casting technology in design & manufacturing of metallic implants, which is used by medical industries. Finite element analysis of this furnace is performed by heat transfer coupled with induction heating module of COMSOL Multiphysics®. This simulation process permits the precise description of the current, temperature, electric field & magnetic field distribution in each component of the furnace. These are the governing parameters plays a very important role , which is used to optimize the geometry of the furnace component (crucible & coil position, number of turns, etc) & efficiency to limit energy consumption, size of electrical generator, so that our smart foundry can respect the safety standards concerning the residual electromagnetic field.
