APPLICATION CONCEPT | PIPELINE & ENERGY
CUSTOM INDUSTRIAL INFRARED HEATING
PUBLIC CASE REFERENCE
Pairs of short-wave modules surround the pipe ahead of tape application.
Reference data subject to application testing and specification review.
Once insulation covers a composite pipe, the adhesive region can no longer be heated effectively from outside. The process therefore needs precise heat at the correct moment.
Pairs of short-wave modules surround the pipe ahead of tape application. High surface intensity heats the pipe and keeps the tape flexible during continuous manufacture.
FEED
Advance the pipe
IR HEAT
Prepare bond zone
WRAP
Apply polymer tape
INSULATE
Complete the structure
PUBLIC RESULT
Reference continuous manufacture: over 450 m
TEMPERATURE
Reference insulation control: +/-3 C
REFERENCE FLUX
Up to 300 kW/m2
EMITTER
Short-wave with nano-reflector option
CONTROL
Line speed, pyrometry and zone trim
CONFIRM
Pipe, tape, adhesive and bond temperatures
