An induction furnace includes a pair of induction coils with a pair of faraday rings disposed between the induction coils to substantially prevent mutual inductance between the first and second induction coils. The induction coils preferably have a different size circumference and may be coplanar. The prevention of mutual inductance provided by the faraday rings is particularly useful for a pusher furnace in which adjacent furnace sections are heated to different and rather specific temperatures.
