Infrared heat - Applications

Heraeus infrared emitters and modules are developed by the Industrial Process Technology Division based on the experience from more than 2500 different thermal processes. The unique twin tube design offers high performance and good mechanical stability, even in the case of emitters with a length of up to 6.5 m. Heraeus engineers cooperate closely with the customer to provide the heat engineering solution that is precisely tailored to the particular needs of each process.
