Plenty of Fab IR Lamps—Built Right, Without the Big Price Tag
We keep a huge stock of fab IR lamps that perform shoulder-to-shoulder with the top U.S. and Japanese brands. And the question we hear the most from engineers is pretty straightforward: how do we keep that premium quality while still landing you a much better price? Here’s the answer—no games, no shortcuts. It’s disciplined design and tight control in how we build them.
Power, Voltage, and Fit: Built to Stay Predictable
Fab heating isn’t forgiving. You need heat that repeats, shift after shift. So our IR lamps are built around rock-solid electrical specs—so you can set up a machine once and trust it for years. We lean into high-voltage options (often 400V) and high wattages (up to 2500W) because you need fast ramp-up and steady holding temperatures when the machine never really stops. And the tube lengths match standard fab zones, so your hot-zone geometry stays predictable. No rework. No guesswork. Just plug it in and run.
What’s Inside: Halogen, Quartz, Smart Coating, and Connectors That Actually Hold
Inside the lamp, the halogen cycle lives inside a quartz envelope. That’s what keeps the filament stable and the output consistent over the life of the lamp. No fading. No surprises. Outside, we apply coatings to fine-tune the spectral output and boost thermal efficiency—so more energy goes where you need it, instead of bleeding off as convective heat. And for installation, we stick with proven connector types like R7s and Sk15. They’re made for high heat, solid contact, and quick field replacement. No fiddly alignment. No wrestling. Just drop it in and get back to work.
Where They Shine: PET Blowing and Other Heavy-Duty Fab Steps
These lamps are a natural fit for PET blowing and other fab heating steps—especially when you need fast, focused heat on a line that keeps moving. The payoff is simple: heating that stays steady, fewer temperature swings, and less downtime when it’s time to swap a lamp. Now, a heads-up—that higher power density that makes cycle times faster does mean you need proper cooling and thermal management in the machine. We can help you match the lamp to your cooling setup, so you get the performance without cooking the surrounding parts.
