Carbon fiber Heat lamp quartz tube

Introduction

We make carbon fiber heat lamps for the places where you can’t afford to mess around. Think industrial settings where the heat has to be intense, reliable, and right where you need it. The whole setup is pretty straightforward. You’ve got a quartz tube, and inside it, a carbon fiber heating element. It all connects with an R7s connector. It’s a simple build, but it’s purpose-built for one thing: getting machines hot, fast, and keeping them there.

The Power Behind the Heat

Let’s talk specs, but in a way that actually makes sense. A typical unit runs at 400V and 2500W, packed into a compact 300mm tube. That’s a lot of heat from a small footprint. It’s what you need to hit your target temperature almost instantly. But that kind of power also demands a stable supply. We run it at 400V because stepping up the voltage drops the current for the same wattage. It keeps the wires from needing to be massive and prevents the voltage from dipping across the line. And that 300mm length? It’s just right. Long enough to spread the heat evenly, but short enough to slip into those tight, awkward spaces.

Why It’s Built This Way

Quartz isn’t an accident. It can handle wild temperature swings without cracking, and it’s transparent to infrared. That means the energy goes straight to the workpiece, not getting wasted heating up the tube itself. Inside, the carbon fiber element is the real hero. It has a super low thermal mass, so the lamp fires up almost instantly and reacts immediately when you change the temperature. The R7s connector is just a smart, practical choice. It handles the high current, locks in solid, and makes the whole lamp a simple drop-in replacement for what you’re already using. We also add a protective coating to the quartz. It fights off chemical wear and stops hot spots from forming.

Where It Shines

These lamps were born for jobs like PET blowing, plastic welding, and curing. The kind of work where you need a laser beam of heat, not a warm room. You need to heat the part, not the whole machine. That fast response cuts down on cycle time, and the tough design is built to survive 24/7 production. It just keeps going. Now, a heads-up. That 2500W density is a beast, which means your cooling system has to be up to the task. If the airflow isn’t right, the heat can build up and shorten the life of other components. So, make sure your cooling is spec’d properly.
