Introduction
We built this glass annealing lamp for one simple reason: to get you up and running fast. No more wasting a week on re-engineering just to get from the crate to full production. The heart of it is a powerful, low-cost infrared lamp. But the real win? It’s modular. You can order just a single replacement tube, or grab a complete, pre-wired bending and heating module. Either way, it’s designed to be plug-and-play, so you save time and cut down on labor.
Power, Voltage, and Size: The Inside Story
It runs on 400V, which lets us pack a lot of heat into a small space. That voltage is what gives you the high wattage needed for rapid heating. A 300mm tube can deliver the same punch as a much bigger unit. The size is a huge advantage—it slips easily into tight spots. And it heats up fast, getting the glass to the right temperature almost instantly. Just one heads-up: because it’s so powerful, you’ll want to make sure your machine’s cooling system is ready for the extra heat.
What It’s Made Of: Halogen, Coating, and Connections
Inside, you’ve got a shortwave infrared halogen element housed in a quartz tube. It responds instantly and gives you precise control over the heat, which is exactly what you need for a perfect annealing curve. The tube has a special reflective coating that pushes heat forward. This boosts efficiency and keeps the surrounding parts from getting scorched. And the connection? We use an R7s industrial fitting. It’s tough, standard, and makes the whole thing a simple drop-in replacement. You wire it up, and it just works.
Built for the Shop Floor: Saving You Time and Headaches
This system was made to live on the factory floor. The modular approach means we can send you a fully pre-assembled bending heating module. No more hunting around for brackets, wiring, and controllers. It arrives ready to go, turning what used to be a complicated integration into a straightforward mounting job. You save hours of labor and avoid the risk of wiring mistakes. In the end, you get a reliable, repeatable heat profile for annealing and bending—at a price that makes sense for real production work.
