Infrared heaters transfer heat directly via radiant energy rather than conduction or convection, making them ideal for fast, non-contact heating of sheets, films and surfaces without warming the surrounding air.
Construction
Shortwave quartz infrared heaters deliver the fastest response and highest radiant intensity, suited to processes needing rapid heat-up and cool-down cycles. Medium wave quartz units offer a balance of response time and energy efficiency. Ceramic infrared heaters provide a more diffuse, even heat spread for larger-area applications.
Key Features
- Non-contact radiant heating – no direct surface contact required
- Fast thermal response, especially with shortwave quartz elements
- Available in multiple lengths and wattages for panel or array configurations
- Suited to both industrial process heating and drying applications
Typical Applications
Plastic sheet and film pre-heating, thermoforming, paint and powder coating curing, drying tunnels, and packaging seal applications.
