Product Overview

YFR FMW twin tube IR emitters are fast medium wave infrared lamps designed for glass cutting, thermal separation, edge heating, glass scoring assistance, glass processing equipment, and customized infrared heating systems.

The twin tube quartz structure provides a stable mechanical form and concentrated heating line. The gold reflector coating helps direct more radiant energy toward the working side of the glass, making the emitter suitable for processes where localized and controlled line heating is required.

YFR can manufacture standard and customized FMW twin tube emitters according to lamp length, cross section, voltage, power, reflector coating, terminal design, lead wire, mounting method, and heating-zone configuration. Replacement and OEM versions can be produced based on original lamps, drawings, or equipment requirements.

Why FMW Twin Tube IR Emitters Are Used for Glass Cutting

Glass cutting and glass thermal separation require controlled heating along a defined line or edge. A properly designed infrared emitter can heat a specific area of the glass surface without direct mechanical contact.

Fast medium wave infrared heating is suitable for applications where the process requires controlled surface heating, stable line heating, and adjustable power output. The twin tube structure helps create a more defined heating profile, while the gold reflector can improve heating direction toward the glass surface.

The final cutting or separation result depends on several process factors, including glass type, glass thickness, pre-scoring method, heating distance, lamp power, line speed, cooling method, temperature control, and mechanical handling. For this reason, YFR recommends confirming the lamp design based on the actual glass processing equipment and production conditions.

Gold Reflector Design

The gold reflector coating is used to direct radiant heat toward the target side of the emitter. For glass cutting and thermal separation applications, this is useful when the heating energy needs to be focused along a defined line instead of radiating equally in all directions.

Reflector Option Typical Purpose
Gold reflector coating Directional heating toward the glass surface
Partial reflector coating Heating direction adjusted according to machine layout
No reflector Used when the machine already has an external reflector
Custom reflector design Produced according to lamp position and heating profile

The correct coating design should be selected according to lamp orientation, glass position, reflector housing, heating distance, and required heating width.


Divided Heating-Zone Customization

Some glass processing systems require one emitter to be divided into two or more heating sections. YFR can customize the emitter according to the required heating-zone arrangement.

Heating-Zone Design Description
Single heating zone One continuous heating section along the lamp length
Two heating sections Separate heating parts for different glass areas
Customized section length Designed according to equipment layout
Independent terminals Optional terminal design for separate control
Power distribution Designed according to heating profile and process requirement

For example, a long FMW twin tube emitter can be customized into divided heating sections when the equipment requires separate power control for different areas of the glass line.

Integration with Glass Processing Equipment

FMW twin tube IR emitters can be integrated into glass cutting, glass thermal separation, glass edge heating, and custom glass heating systems.

A complete heating section may include:

  1. FMW twin tube IR emitters.

  2. Reflector housing or lamp frame.

  3. Ceramic holders or terminal supports.

  4. SCR power regulator.

  5. PID temperature controller.

  6. Infrared thermometer or thermocouple feedback.

  7. Air cooling or protective structure when required.

  8. PLC or HMI integration for line control.

  9. Safety interlock and over-temperature protection.

For glass processing lines, power control and heating-zone control are important because the heating result is sensitive to glass thickness, line speed, lamp distance, and cooling method.
