Ceramic Infrared Radiators
General information
Infrared radiation refers to the propagation of electromagnetic waves in the spectral range above visible light, from 0.7 µm to approximately 80 µm. The propagation of these electromagnetic waves is accompanied by the directional transfer of energy. Infrared ceramic radiators are effective and robust infrared emitters that provide medium- and long-wave infrared radiation, depending on the material and the application process. Infrared ceramic radiators have an operating temperature of 450 °C to 850 °C with an infrared wavelength range of 2 to 10 µm. Most plastics, as well as many other materials, absorb infrared radiation best in this range, which is why the ceramic radiator is the most widely used infrared radiator on the market.
Applications and common uses for IR ceramics radiators
Infrared ceramics radiators are used in various industrial sectors, ranging from thermoforming to paint drying. Examples of applications for infrared radiators:
Activating adhesives and heat-seal layers, drying plastic emulsions
Drying and baking of painted sheet metal parts, melting of powder coatings
Drying of glazes on ceramic tiles, tempering of glass & injection-moulded parts
Soldering of printed circuit boards, furnace construction, heating of climate chambers, thermoforming
Preheating of weld seams in pipe construction, melting of sound-insulating mats
Curing of epoxy resins, production of shrink film
Gelling of PVC paste coatings on fabrics
Heating of GRP and CFRP parts
