The Induction Furnace is an advanced version of the Electric Furnace. It has the ability to process 2 stacks of items simultaneously. Doing so will also save 50% of the energy that would have been used had every stack been smelted by itself.

If you apply a Redstone signal to it, it will continuously build up the heat needed for smelting with 100% heat, consuming EU in the process. However this is a very small amount (1 EU/t) while just building up heat, so the EU cost can easily be covered with 2-3 Solar Panels. (1 Solar Panel produces enough EU to maintain 100% heat without any energy lost but will lose energy if items are smelted)

Recipe


Use

The smeltable items are put into the two top slots, and then the Induction Furnace is supplied with EU. Note that the furnace can accept LV or MV EU sources. The processed items appear in the two slots on the right side. During its operation, the Furnace will build up heat, up to the 100% level. When idle, the heat will slowly dissipate back to 0%. It is possible to build up the heat by providing a Redstone signal to the Furnace. It will consume 1 EU/t while maintaining 100% heat, so it is a good idea to hook a redstone signal up and leave it at 100% because this thing takes a while to heat up. While building up heat from 0%-100% it consumes a lot of EU as does it when smelting.

Energy

EU
Input 6,000 (0% heat), 208 (100% heat) (16 EU/t)

1 EU/t (while maintaining heat)

Output None
Storage 10,000 EU

Maximum input: 128 EU/t before exploding.

Since the Induction Furnace does not have upgrade slots for Transformer Upgrades, Overclockers, or Energy Storage Upgrades, it is impossible to feed 512 EU/t (HV current) into it without the machine exploding. It can however handle MV.
