Revolutionize Glass Cutting with Our Fast Medium Wave Infrared Lamp – Precision, Speed, & Zero Damage!
In the world of glass fabrication, precision and safety are non-negotiable. Traditional scoring wheels and lasers often leave micro-fractures, waste energy, or struggle with delicate materials. Enter YFR's Fast Medium Wave Infrared Lamp – engineered from the ground up for perfect glass cutting, every time.
The lamp heats the glass evenly. This helps create controlled fractures without causing stress. Here's how it works and how to use it:Revolutionize Glass Cutting with Our Fast Medium Wave Infrared Lamp – Precision, Speed, & Zero Damage!
How an Infrared Lamp Helps in Glass Cutting
1. Localized Heating – The IR lamp emits focused infrared radiation, heating a specific line on the glass. YFR's Infrared lamp 300 degree Gold Reflector ,which provide a line Target Heating . with Special process of Filament can make heating energy much more Stronger.
2. Thermal Stress Induction – The heated area expands, creating stress along the desired cut line. we are pride in the new Tech FMW Gold Infrared lamp . which even Higher efficiency than heraeus Emitter.
3. Controlled Cooling – When cooled (either naturally or with a damp cloth/spray), the glass contracts, causing a clean fracture along the heated line.
Medium wave infrared (2–4 μm wavelength) strikes the perfect balance for glass processing:
✅ Optimal Absorption: Glass absorbs MWIR energy 3× faster than short-wave IR, reducing heating time.
✅ Controlled Penetration: Heats the surface uniformly without deep thermal stress (unlike long-wave IR).
✅ Instant On/Off: Zero warm-up/cool-down delays → 30% faster cuts vs. conventional heaters.
As pioneers in industrial IR technology, we’ve optimized every component for glass-cutting perfection:
Lightning-Fast Cuts
Cut 3–8mm glass in under 15 seconds (patented emitter geometry).
Adjustable power (500–2000W) for thin display glass or thick laminated panels.
Flawless Edge Quality
Zero chipping or micro-cracks: MWIR induces clean thermal fractures.
Smooth edges → No secondary polishing needed.
Energy-Efficient Design
40% less power consumption vs. halogen IR lamps.
Gold-coated reflectors focus 95%+ energy on the cut line.
Built for Industry
24/7 continuous operation: Ceramic emitters rated for 10,000+ hours.
IP65 rating (dust/water-resistant) for harsh workshop environments.
Stained glass art: Curve-cutting without brittle fractures.
Tempered glass pre-scoring: Create holes/notches before tempering.
Display glass: Cut OLED/Gorilla Glass without micro-defects.
Recycling plants: Separate laminated windshields in seconds.

Steps to Cut Glass Using an Infrared Lamp
1. Mark the Cut Line
- Use a glass marker or tape to define the cutting path.
2. Position the IR Lamp
- Place the IR lamp 5–15 cm away from the glass surface, ensuring even heating along the line.
3. Heat the Glass
- Turn on the IR lamp and move it slowly along the cut line (or keep it fixed if the glass is small).
- Heat for 10–30 seconds, depending on glass thickness (thicker glass requires longer heating).
4. Cool the Glass Rapidly
- Use a damp cloth or water spray to cool the heated line quickly.
- Another option, let it cool naturally for a smoother break.
5. Snap the Glass
- Apply gentle pressure along the scored line to separate the glass.
- If properly heated, it should break cleanly.
Best Types of Infrared Lamps for Glass Cutting
- Ceramic Infrared Heaters (good for even heating)
- Quartz Infrared Lamps (fast, focused heating)
- - Halogen IR lamps offer high intensity and precise control. YFR fast medium wave IR lamps provide strong focused heat. They radiate directly on glass with high density.
Advantages of Using an IR Lamp for Glass Cutting
✔ No physical contact (reduces risk of scratches/cracks)
✔ Clean, smooth edges (minimal chipping)
✔ Works for thin & tempered glass (if done carefully)
✔ No need for a glass cutter wheel
Limitations
- Not ideal for exceptionally thick glass (requires laser or traditional scoring).
- Requires practice to control heating time and avoid overheating.
Alternative Methods
- CO₂ Laser Cutting (for precision industrial cuts)
- Traditional Glass Cutter + Snap Method (for thicker glass)
