All-Polyimide Heaters

All-Polyimide heaters are a high performance alternative to Minco’s standard polyimide flexible heaters, allowing higher temperatures and watt densities. Minco's unique ability to manufacture these heaters has prompted success in many high-temperature applications worldwide.

All-Polyimide heaters must be factory mounted or clamped to heat sinks and are only available as custom designs.

Benefits of All-Polyimide Heaters

Thin, lightweight heaters allow you to apply heat where it’s needed ultimately reducing overall operating costs
Etched-foil heating technology provides efficient thermal cycling of samples for increased throughput
Low mass construction and factory lamination saves space and reduces cycle time
Custom profiling offers uniform thermal performance of heating output for improved processing yields and productivity
Maximum operating temperature of 260°C offers a higher temperature range than any other flexible film heater for maximum design flexibility
Turnkey assembly solutions can drastically reduce assembly time and provide lowest total cost of operation
