As composite materials continue to drive innovation across aerospace, defense, space, and marine applications, manufacturers face increasing pressure to improve cycle times, energy efficiency, and process control. Traditional heating methods such as autoclaves, ovens, and resistive systems often limit throughput, increase energy consumption, and constrain design flexibility.
Self-heated tooling powered by induction technology represents a step-change in composite manufacturing.
Through our collaboration with Corebon, Baker Industries designs and manufactures advanced composite tooling—including layup molds, cure tools, and forming tools—integrated with high-performance induction heating systems. This combined solution enables faster, more precise, and more energy-efficient composite part production without compromising quality or scalability.
Baker Industries delivers turnkey self-heated tooling solutions from design through validation and built specifically for composite manufacturing environments and workflows.
Tool designs optimized for induction heating performance, thermal uniformity, and manufacturability.
Large-scale, high-precision machining, fabrication, and 3D metal printing using aerospace-grade materials.
Embedded induction coils and multi-zone control systems integrated directly into the tool.
We design and manufacture a wide range of self-heated tools for composite forming and curing processes, including:
Corebon’s induction heating systems heat the tool directly rather than the surrounding environment, resulting in faster heating rates, improved uniformity, and significantly reduced energy consumption.
Baker Industries provides the tooling design, engineering, and manufacturing. Corebon provides the induction heating technology.
Together, we deliver a fully integrated solution designed to perform as a single system.
