Improved heating efficiency and quality with medium wave infrared heaters for plastic molding!
Solving heating challenges in plastic molding with medium-wave infrared heaters!
In the plastic molding industry, there is a constant demand for improvements in product quality and productivity. In particular, molding defects and uneven heating are significant challenges that lead to reduced yield and increased costs. Medium-wave infrared heaters excel in power consumption and uniform heating compared to near-infrared and far-infrared heaters, contributing to the resolution of these issues. This document explains why medium-wave infrared heaters are a rational choice for plastic molding. 【Usage Scenarios】 * Preheating plastic parts * Uniform temperature distribution of molds * Reduction of molding defects * Improvement of productivity 【Effects of Implementation】 * Shortened heating time * Reduced energy costs * Stabilization of product quality * Increased yield

[Data Published] Heating efficiency changes significantly with medium-wave infrared - A technical explanation of the essential differences between near-infrared and far-infrared.
Leister offers not only plastic welding machines and hot air generators but also "mid-infrared heaters" as part of its product lineup. When selecting infrared heaters based solely on "output," it can lead to unexpected power loss and quality issues. The key factor is the compatibility of materials and wavelengths. Many industrial materials such as resins, paper, wood, and water have been confirmed to have high absorption efficiency in the mid-wave infrared range. On the other hand, near-infrared has a fast response time but is peakier, while far-infrared has a broad range but a slow response time, making it prone to energy loss due to continuous power supply. In actual comparative tests, it has been reported that the power consumption can differ by about twice to achieve the same heating results. This affects not only electricity costs but also heating time, equipment capacity, and finished quality. This document organizes the differences between near-infrared, mid-wave, and far-infrared, and technically explains why the 2.6μm mid-wave infrared heater is a rational choice for many industrial applications. If you want to reconsider your heater selection, please refer to the technical materials and the product pages for infrared heaters.
