Application Examples
- Polymer Processing: Uniform heating of polymers, ideal for processing polycarbonate samples.
- Ink and Paint Drying: Efficient drying of inks and paints through targeted heat application.
- Powder Coating Gelation: Optimization of the gelation process of powder coatings through controlled radiation.
- Drying of Solvent-Containing Substances: Fast and uniform drying to reduce production times.
Treatment of a Polycarbonate Sample with Raloquick Emitters
The following diagram shows the possibility of heating polymers homogeneously with Raloquick emitters. The emitter is designed for this purpose close to the NIR range. However, in contrast to NIR radiation, the energy losses when radiating through the materials are kept low. Penetration depths as well as preferential heating of surfaces can be controlled via the wavelength.
Advantages
Compact design: Enables ideal space utilization in existing systems.
-
Immediate readiness: Short response times thanks to a special filament structure; only a short warm-up phase is required.
- Adaptability: Performance parameters are individually tailored to customer needs and specific processes.
- Energy savings: Minimized energy losses through targeted radiation near the NIR range.
- Quality: Highest quality standards (Made in Germany) to guarantee durability and reliability.
