Fast Infrared Preheating Optimizes Vacuum Laminating

APPLICATION CONCEPT  |  AUTOMOTIVE INTERIORS

CUSTOM INDUSTRIAL INFRARED HEATING

PUBLIC CASE REFERENCE

Heat the decorative film
only when the forming cycle calls.

Fast-response medium-wave infrared heats the film close to the forming station.

-5 sec REFERENCE CYCLE

Reference data subject to application testing and specification review.

The Process Challenge

Decorative TPO or PVC film must reach a controlled forming window. Slow heaters may require standby power and extra space for movement outside the process cell.

The Infrared Approach

Fast-response medium-wave infrared heats the film close to the forming station. Wide-range power modulation follows the cycle and reduces unnecessary standby heating.

TRIM

Finish the part

Application Features

  • Rapid power modulation from standby to process output
  • Compact layout can reduce heater parking space
  • Zoning follows large or shaped interior films
  • Temperature feedback protects decorative surfaces
  • Recipe control supports product changes

Typical Configuration
