Ceramic Band Heaters: Powering Pakistan's Industrial Heating Solutions
Ceramic band heaters are a popular choice for heating extruder sleeves and injection molding machines in an industrial sector. These heaters offer several advantages, including high watt densities, the ability to heat by both conduction and radiation at high temperatures, and a long lifespan.
What are Ceramic Band Heaters?
Ceramic band heaters consist of a helically wound resistance coil made from nickel-chrome wire that is precisely strung through specially designed ceramic insulating bricks, forming a flexible heating mat. They are available in one-piece or two-piece designs, with the latter commonly used for larger diameters or when a one-piece heater would be inconvenient.
Types of Ceramic Band Heaters
Ceramic band heaters come in various types, including:
One-Piece Ceramic Band Heaters
The basic design most often specified by OEMs and processors, available with all types of insulation, construction styles, clamping, or termination variations.
Two-Piece Ceramic Band Heaters
Used for sizes larger than 21" diameter or when a one-piece heater would be inconvenient, available with all types of insulation, construction styles, clamping, or termination variations.
Reverse Ceramic Band Heaters
Intended for the outer surface of the band to heat the inner surface of a cylinder, using the same built-in insulation as normal ceramic bands.
Applications of Ceramic Band Heaters
Ceramic band heaters are widely used in various industries, including:
Injection molding
Food industry
Textile printing and processing
Chemical industries
Extrusion processes
They are commonly used to heat extruder sleeves and injection molding machines, with temperatures reaching up to 1600°F (871°C).
