An induction heating mold system achieves rapid heating and rapid cooling of a mold to reduce thermal cycle time by using an induction coil in a heater module that inductively heats a ferromagnetic layer disposed on a mold body (e.g., disposed around an outer periphery of the mold body). A cooling channel may be configured between the induction coil and the ferromagnetic layer on the mold body to allow fluid to pass between the mold body and the heater module to rapidly cool the mold body to remove the molded part. A plurality of heater modules may be used, which may be coupled together such that a cooling fluid passes through the coupled cooling channels from one module to a second module. In this manner, the heater modules may be combined to provide an induction heating mold system for various mold body sizes or lengths. 感应加热模具系统通过使用加热器模块中的感应线圈来实现模具的快速加热和快速冷却以减少热循环时间，所述感应线圈感应加热配置在模具主体上(例如配置在模具主体的外周边周围)的铁磁层。冷却通道可以被配置在所述感应线圈与所述模具主体上的所述铁磁层之间，以允许流体从所述模具主体与所述加热器模块之间通过以快速冷却所述模具主体，从而去除模制件。可以使用多个加热器模块，所述多个加热器模块可以联接
