Halogen Infrared Heating Lamps: The Heat That Gets Straight to Work
We built these halogen infrared lamps for one simple reason: to give you heat that’s focused, controllable, and ready the moment you need it. These aren’t your average bulbs. They’re built for the grit of industrial work—the kind of heat that makes plastic forming, drying, and curing happen fast, without fuss.
Power and size, sorted out
At the heart of these heaters is a quartz tube, typically running at 2500W and 400V. That high-voltage rating is a smart move. It lets you push serious power over longer runs without the line getting strained—so you get steady heat where you need it, without voltage dipping. The tube is about 300mm long, which is a deliberate choice. It packs a lot of wattage into a small space, and that’s exactly what you want when room is tight. But here’s the catch: that kind of intensity needs airflow. Give it proper cooling, and it runs clean. Skimp on airflow, and the surrounding parts feel the heat.
What they’re made of, and why it matters
The quartz envelope handles the shock of going from cold to red-hot and back again—no drama, just durability. Inside, a halogen gas fill helps protect the filament, so the lamp lasts longer and stays reliable when you’re cycling on and off all day. We also coat the tube to steer the infrared energy into a specific wavelength band. That means the heat goes where it’s supposed to—right into the target material—without wasting energy heating the air around it. And the R7s base? It’s the standard for a reason. This double-ended linear connector is simple, tough, and gives you a secure, high-amperage connection. Wiring it up is straightforward, and once it’s in, you can count on a solid electrical contact.
Where they shine, and what it feels like
Take PET blowing, for example. Swap in one of these lamps, and the preform heats up quickly and evenly. The focused infrared output hits the plastic directly, so you’re not wasting energy warming up the whole machine bay. It’s clean, precise, and efficient. These lamps are built to keep pace with rapid on/off cycling, so your cycle times stay tight. That kind of responsiveness makes the whole line feel more alive—less waiting, more doing. Just keep one thing in mind: because the heat is concentrated, your machine design needs solid thermal management. But if you need raw, focused heat in a small footprint, these lamps are exactly what you’re looking for.
