Radio Frequency Heating

Radio Frequency (RF) Heating uses electromagnetic waves at specific radio frequencies to generate heat within materials or tissues. When RF waves penetrate a substance, they cause molecules—in particular water molecules—to vibrate and produce heat through friction. This process is precisely controlled and can efficiently warm targeted areas without affecting surrounding tissue. RF heating is used in applications like medical treatments (e.g., cancer therapy), industrial processes, and food processing, providing a non-contact and uniform heating method that leverages electromagnetic energy to achieve desired thermal effects quickly and accurately.
