We built these carbon fiber heat lamps for one reason: to handle the brutal, non-stop job of drying machines.
These aren’t your average bulbs. They’re purpose-built for one thing—packing a massive amount of heat into a small space. The whole point is simple: blast away moisture and cure materials fast, so your production line keeps moving without getting bogged down.
Power and Size: The Sweet Spot
Here’s the thing about getting that kind of heat output. It’s all about the power and the voltage. Most of these run at 2500W, pulling from a 400V supply. That high voltage is the secret sauce—it lets us squeeze a ton of wattage into a short package. The lamp itself is typically around 300mm long, so it slips right into those tight drying chambers. You get serious heat density without needing a giant housing. But, and this is important, that heat has to go somewhere. The surrounding parts and the machine’s cooling system need to be ready for the temperature rise. If the cooling isn’t up to snuff, you risk frying nearby sensors and wiring.
The Build: Carbon Fiber, Coating, and a Rock-Solid Connection
The carbon fiber heating element is the heart of it. It heats up lightning-fast and handles being switched on and off over and over again without throwing in the towel. No more worrying about it burning out from the shock of repeated heating cycles. The quartz envelope has a special coating that focuses the energy into the shortwave infrared range. That means the heat penetrates deep, right where you need it. And the connector? It’s the standard R7s. This double-ended connection is tough enough to handle the vibration and the thermal expansion you see in industrial dryers. You wire it up once, and it stays put. Installation is straightforward, and if you ever need to service it, it’s a quick job.
Real-World Results: Keeping Your Line Running
On the shop floor, time is money. These lamps deliver heat directly to the product, which slashes cycle times. And because they’re built with carbon fiber, they can take a beating. They handle the stress of constant heating and cooling without breaking a sweat. The compact 300mm length means you can pack them in close together, creating a dense array that spreads the heat evenly across the belt. What does that mean for you? Less downtime. Lower maintenance costs. These lamps are a direct replacement for what’s already in your drying systems, so you don’t have to re-engineer the housing. Just match the voltage, make sure your cooling is in order, and you’re back to work.
