transfers large amounts of energy in a short time. Heaters are available for large surfaces, for three dimensional shapes and for small work pieces. By matching infrared heaters to individual applications, heating and drying processes can be integrated seamlessly into processing operations. In addition, infrared technology can be fitted with little expenditure into existing manufacturing lines.
Infrared heaters allow optimum matching
There are infrared heaters with various spectra. Short wave infrared radiation penetrates more deeply into materials, medium wave radiation is absorbed more strongly at the surface and into thin films. The wavelength at which infrared is emitted significantly influences the efficiency of the heating process. Perfectly matched infrared heaters can allow energy savings of up to 50 %.
Short wave infrared heaters
Short wave infrared radiation has a particularly high heating power. The radiation penetrates into the object to be heated and provides for very effective heating in the material. Short wave heaters are particularly suited for processes which need to be stopped and started very quickly, as they achieve their full operating efficiency within seconds. Infrared heaters are produced in proven and especially stable twin tube format. Twin tube heaters distinguish themselves with high radiation density and high power intensity. A gold reflector, applied directly to the heater, directs the infrared radiation onto the object to be heated. The efficiency compared with standard secondary reflectors is significantly improved. Short wave infrared heaters are manufactured with heated lengths between 1 inch and 120 inches. Various designs guarantee a flexible matching of the heater with the manufacturing process.
Standard designs for IR twin tube heaters, with one-side (A,B) or two-side (C,D,H) connections.
