Creamic Band Heaters
Hotwatt's Ceramic Band Heaters are developed keeping in mind the requirements of the industry for high temperature long lasting heaters. The HOTWATT Ceramic Heaters are specifically designed to replace and upgrade your Mica Band Heaters on your Injection and Extrusion machines. The body of the Ceramic Band heater is constructed of precision made segmented ceramics, which add flexibility and allow for easy installation. The ceramics are covered with insulation, which serves to lower the shroud temperatures and concentrates the heat towards the barrel. The end results are less wasted energy, a lower wattage requirement and a longer heater life. We specialize in customizing the heater to meet the customer's need.
