The INDUCTOR Mini-Pad is an optional heating attachment for the innovative Mini-Ductor induction heating tool that allows technicians to remove stickers, decals, graphics, emblems, small body side mouldings and pin striping whilst leaving little to no adhesive behind. This not only saves time and money, but also reduces potential health and safety risks from using harmful solvents and also makes a job much cleaner.

Unlike traditional heating methods, the invisible heat created by induction heating is the cleanest and fastest way for removing objects bonded to sheet metal. The high frequency magnetic fields pass through non-metallic objects, once these magnetic fields reach the metal surface they heat the metal only leaving the non-metallic parts cooler. The result is easy release and the adhesive stays with the cooler part.

The Mini-Pad attachment is attached to the Mini-Ductor Venom with a simple Twist Lock. The technicians than waive the attachment over the edge of the graphic. The Mini-Pad is then applied to the end of the desired part or decal to be removed for a couple seconds. Once the user is able to peel the start of the part or decal off, it provides an area to pull on to keep the outward pressure going.

The user then simply pulls back the edge of the graphic and follows the outward pressure to the area the heat is being applied to, Keeping the attachment in motion to avoid overheating. The decal can then be peeled off gradually.

You can also see the innovation Venom in action at Automechanika Birmingham. Demonstrations will take place on the Sykes-Pickavant stand, 17A9.
