Stop waiting months for a simple lamp.
When an OEM part goes on backorder, your whole line just… stops. It’s frustrating. It’s expensive. And honestly, waiting weeks for a factory shipment while your production sits idle is a nightmare. That’s why we do things differently. We can get custom infrared heating lamps for glass stress relief (annealing) in your hands in7 days. But we aren’t just copying a part number and hoping for the best. We actually look at the physics of your heating zone. We make sure the replacement drops right in and works exactly how it should.
Getting the heat right
Glass is picky. If the thermal gradient is off, you get cracks. It’s that simple. We tweak the voltage and wattage so they play nice with your existing transformers. If you’re squeezing high-wattage tubes into a tiny space, we do the math on the linear power density for you. Here is a pro tip: high heat density means you can move glass through faster, but it beats up the quartz envelope. Make sure your cooling fans are actually doing their job. If the ends of the lamp get too hot, the seals will fail way sooner than they should.
The gear that actually lasts
We use high-purity quartz because that’s the only way to handle the thermal shock of glass processing without shattering. Depending on what you need, we can go with clear tubes or coated ones. The coated versions shift the spectrum, which helps the heat soak deeper into the glass surface. And then there’s the wiring. This is where most cheap lamps fail. Whether you need standard R7s, Sk15s, or something totally weird and custom, we’ve got you covered. We solder and crimp everything by hand. No shortcuts. That means you won’t have to deal with those annoying arc-over issues you get with mass-produced junk.
Just plug it in and go
These lamps fit right into the annealing lehrs or stress-relief stations of the big-name machinery brands. Because we match the length and the electrical load perfectly, you don’t have to spend hours messing with your PLC temperature control loop. You just swap the lamp and get the line moving again. It’s a fast fix for a big headache.
