Infralight
Technology is a
leading supplier and consultant of infrared,
infrared heating,
infrared elements, infrared lamps, radiant tubes,
twin tube heating
quartz elements, infrared ovens. Infrared
heating is commonly used in
many
industrial
manufacturing processes: Drying and curing films,
paints,
inks,
lacquers, adhesives, powder coating. Infrared heating is widely used to
heat products on a web application such as glass laminating, removing
film water, drying timber, paper. Infrared is used as localised heating
for spot repair on damaged vehicles, planes, various components,
plastics. From
a manufacturers
viewpoint Infrared heating
is fast and direct with
high efficiency, infrared heating offers the operator precise control
with high production, low capital costs, easily installed and flexible.
Downtime is negligible and servicing is quick and simple. Infralight
Technology with 20 years experience in industrial furnace
design, will custom design a solution based on your manufacturing
criteria. Contact us anytime to discuss your application and what we
can offer you.

INFRARED
HEATING SYSTEMS
An infrared system can deliver heat quickly
and accurately
in the area that is required, energy is not wasted and it is a highly
efficient heating unit. The size of the IR system is very small
compared to normal
convection and other types
of
heating systems. A
typical NIR dryer will be less than a mete in length compared to
10-30m for a convection system and at a 10th of the cost. Convection
heating is extremely inefficient for fast web applications. Infralight
Technology's twin tubes are made from high purity quartz. The quartz is
3mm thick and a gold coating is applied to the back of the quartz. The
elements are very strong, made for industrial applications, fast
switching and will last for thousands of hours of normal operation.
Quartz infrared tubes are the most efficient form of infrared heating
because the quartz does not absorb heat, quartz is transparent to
infrared light. Metal sheathed elements or similar arenot as efficient
because they absorb most of the heat generated and are very slow to warm up
(minutes). Quartz elements are instant.

QUARTZ
INFRARED HEATING-TWIN TUBE HEATING WITH THE GOLD REFLECTOR
Infralight
Technology's twin tube
heating elements emit
high intensity infrared
heat. The gold
reflector
applied to the quartz tube
directs all of the
infrared heat onto the
product where it is needed.
No energy is wasted.
Because Infrared heat
is actually light and has all
the properties of
light, the gold coating
is applied to the back of the
quartz tube, reflecting all of the heat. Gold is
the most reflective metal, which gives an reflective efficiency of 95%.
The infrared heating systems are compact and easily installed. Most
infrared heating systems are
installed very quickly. There are no on-going maintenance issues and
running costs are minimul. Once installed
and commissioned, the unit will operate continuously for thousands of
hours. The heating
modules, made from stainles steel are air-cooled. Normal safety
procedures are outlined in delivery instructions.

NEAR
INFRARED HEATING SYSTEMS
Compact heating
devices with many advantages above other forms of heating. This mode of
heating
allows the user precise temperature control over the process,
saving production costs and time with a much higher qulaity of
production.
Some of the features of a near infrared heating system include:
- No warm up time
- Faster production
- Little or No
maintenance
- Compact systems
saving on valuable floor space
- Safe and reliable

Quartz Twin Tubes |
FAST RESPONSE QUARTZ HEATING ELEMENTS
With zero
warm up time and instantly powered down with no residual
heat. The advantage is the operation will save money on power as the
system is only heating when product is being processed. Normal electric
or gas convection
systems need to be operated
continuously
because they have very long warm up times. Fast response
quartz
infrared
heating
elements when the power is deactivated, switch off instantly
with
no residual heat. If there is an emergency stop for example, machine
breakdown, a switch will disconnect the power to the heating
elements. The product will not be compromised and most importantly
there is no risk of fire.

QUARTZ INFRARED HEATING LAMPS &
TUBES
Infrared heating
technology is used today for fast, targeted heating in a wide range of
material processes. Infralight Technology supplies a range of infrared
heating lamps from the quartz twin tube heating
elements
with the gold reflector
to the halogen
single tube elements.
Custom made elements up to lengths of 4
meters are possible. Infralight supplies all lamp types including short
wave, fast response medium wave and medium wave heating elements.
Heating elements are supplied with or without gold reflector.
