Why Choose Our Flexible Heaters?
Precise Heat Distribution
Our etched-foil technology ensures uniform heat, eliminating hot spots and improving your product's performance and safety.
Unmatched Versatility
Conforming to any curve, shape, or size, our heaters are perfect for applications where traditional heaters simply won't fit.
Built to Last
Using only high-quality materials, our heaters are resistant to moisture, chemicals, and mechanical stress, ensuring a long operational life.
Energy Efficient
By applying heat directly to the target surface, our flexible heaters minimize heat loss and reduce energy consumption, saving you money.
How Your Heater Is Made
Our state-of-the-art manufacturing ensures every heater meets rigorous quality standards. We primarily use an etched foil process, where a resistive circuit is precisely photo-etched from a thin metal foil. This element is then encapsulated between layers of high-performance insulating material. This method allows for exceptional repeatability, complex heat patterns, and superior heat transfer compared to traditional wire-wound elements.
Endless Customization Options
Your application is unique, and your heater should be too. We can tailor every aspect of your flexible heater:
✓Custom Shapes & Sizes: From simple squares to complex geometries with cutouts and holes, we match your exact form factor.
✓Integrated Sensors: We can embed thermocouples, RTDs, or thermostats directly into the heater for precise temperature control.
✓Variable Watt Density: Concentrate heat exactly where you need it most with custom profiled heating zones.
✓Voltage & Leads: Specify your required voltage and choose from a variety of lead wire types, lengths, and connectors.
Material Selection
The right material is key to performance. Silicone Rubber is your go-to for durability and moisture resistance. Polyimide (Kapton®) offers exceptional performance in high temperatures and vacuums. For cost-sensitive, low-temp needs, Polyester is an excellent choice.
What Are Flexible Heaters?
Think of them as heating blankets for your components. They generate heat by passing an electric current through a resistive element, just like a standard heater. The key difference is that this element and its insulation are incredibly thin and pliable, allowing them to deliver thermal energy directly to almost any surface.
How to Choose the Right Heater
To find your perfect match, ask yourself:
- What is my maximum operating temperature?
- What is the size and shape of the surface?
- Will the heater be exposed to moisture or chemicals?
- What are my voltage and wattage needs?
