Controlled heating for plastic annealing

Introduction

We built these shortwave infrared halogen heating lamps for one reason and one reason only: annealing high-precision plastic parts. The whole point? Get rid of internal stress before it makes your part fail. If you’re running high-precision injection molded components, you need a heat source that’s fast, controlled, and won’t scorch the surface. Our lamps were engineered from the ground up to do exactly that.

Power, Voltage, and Size: What You’re Working With

Our standard setup runs on 400V and hits 2500W, all packed into a 300mm quartz tube. This wasn’t an accident. The high voltage gives us serious power density in a small footprint, which is exactly what you need to fit into tight machine enclosures. The 300mm length gives you a focused heating zone. You get enough coverage for standard parts without wasting energy over a wide, uncontrolled area. It delivers intense heat, right away. But here’s the catch: that 2500W output throws off a lot of ambient heat. So your machine’s cooling system needs to be up to the task. If you can’t dissipate that heat, you’re risking overheating nearby electronics.
