FIELD: process engineering.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to metal forming and may be used for heating billet in hot die forging. Plasma flow is directed from top to bottom in hearing gap formed between billet surface and strap. Strap with plasma flow inlet allows forming the zone of plasma flow propagation and outlet for cooled plasma flow. For this, its inside on both side from inlet is provided with heat-insulation tape spacers to comply with billet zone selected for forming. Zone-forming substrate is located opposite aforesaid heating gap. Said substrate and strap make a pattern of billet heating zone.
EFFECT: uniform and controlled heating, higher quality.
