In shortwave infrared lamps, what is the TUNGSTEN HALOGEN CYCLE? Tungsten halogen cycle lamps (sometimes called emitters) have tungsten filaments.Are halogen gas filled, and require high temperature quartz glass tubes. These lamps fall into the shortwave segment of the light spectrum Tungsten halogen cycle lamps exhibit unique traits over standard Incandescent bulbs. Directly summed up; glass remains clear (doesn’t darken) and filament life is doubled.This means that the lumen output over the life of the...

Infrared Lamps can be formed into many different shapes in order to properly match the requirements of a finishing processes’ heat application. The most popular are omega shaped lamps “C” shaped lamps and contour shaped lamps. These IR lamps are formed to focus the IR heat to where it is needed. Omega lamps are used in heating beakers of liquid, heating test tubes, forming or bending tubes, drawing glass or plastic fibers, and shrinking insulation...

Anderson Thermal Devices (ATD) Infrared quartz tube lamps are used in many industrial manufacturing processes, such as PET manufacture, curing of coatings, forming of plastics, annealing, plastic welding, ink drying, and powder coating and paint drying In these applications, infrared heat sources are far more efficient than convection ovens or contact heating. Efficiency is achieved by matching the wavelength of the infrared heater to the absorption characteristics of the substrate. IR heat sources are broadly...

Stamped Foil and Stamped Foil with air (SF and SFA) medium wave infrared heaters are highly efficient fast response heaters suitable for a wide variety of industrial process heating applications. Rugged stamped foil element strips are mounted on a high temperature insulation board. The energy freely radiates to the product without any quartz or ceramic to block the energy. This allows a 90% conversion of electrical power input to useable radiant output, eliminates thermal lag...

Powder coatings are increasingly used today to create finishes not only on metal parts, as was the primary application in the past, but also for MDF (medium density fiberboard) products such as furniture and kitchen cabinets. Metal parts are also being finished in innovative ways. Appliance boxes are coated in flat form and then bent into shape, which requires a very strong yet flexible bond so the finish doesn’t crack. Preparing surfaces and curing powder...
