Infrared test and measurement equipment can be used to evaluate the infrared heating characteristics of different materials and to determine the appropriate emitter type and heating distance. This category includes test equipment and measuring instruments for industrial development, process trials and laboratory applications.
Infrared heating tests and material evaluation
When selecting an infrared heating technology, it is important to determine how the material responds to different infrared wavelengths. Infrared test and measurement equipment allows different emitter types, heating distances and process parameters to be compared under controlled conditions.
These devices are particularly useful when developing new industrial heating processes, drying systems, thermoforming equipment, heat-treatment machines and custom infrared heating solutions.
Typical applications
- development of infrared heating technologies
- material heating and heat-treatment trials
- plastic and thermoforming tests
- drying process evaluation
- industrial research and development
- comparison of different infrared emitters
Preliminary testing can help determine the most suitable infrared emitter type, power level and positioning for a specific application.
