Gas IR Powder Preheat for Farm Equipment

As an industry leader in the design and fabrication of custom heating equipment, at Thermal Innovations Corp., we engineer a variety of custom gas infrared heating systems for a diverse range of industries. Gas IR heating systems are extremely efficient for many curing, drying, and melting applications. With our innovations in heating technology, we are able to meet the level of precision and control in a gas system that is typically reserved for electric systems. Rapid heat up and cool down capabilities mean equipment does not have to be turned on prior to use, and our fuel to radiant output boasts the highest efficiency in the industry. These features add to the natural energy efficiency of gas systems and can result in significant savings over the life of the equipment.

In addition to straight infrared heating systems, convection heating capabilities can be added for curing parts with complex geometries or as a preheating step. This adds to the system's versatility and can increase part throughput for many applications. Our expertise extends beyond the heating system itself to other related processes such as coating application and automated part handling. We have equipment currently operating in a number of different industries. As a result, customers can see similar versions of their potential system operating in a real environment prior to fabrication. Because we are not tied to a specific heating technology or equipment brand, engineers are able to optimize systems based on a customer's specific process. For additional information about our custom infrared gas curing systems, see the table below, or contact us directly.
