Quartz Halogen Heat Lamp IR Lamp for Blowing Machines

May 3, 2026

What makes these heat lamps actually work in a tight space

We built these Quartz Halogen Heat Lamps for the one place that demands serious heat in a tiny footprint: blowing machines. Space is tight, and the heat has to hit hard and fast. So we spec these lamps at 400V and 2500W, packed into just 300mm. That’s the sweet spot for concentrated infrared that heats preforms quickly without forcing you to redesign the machine around the lamp. The 400V rating isn’t an afterthought. It’s a deliberate choice for industrial blowing lines, pulling less current so you can run longer without wrestling with voltage drop.

Why quartz, halogen, and an R7s base

Quartz, not regular glass, because it handles sudden heat shocks without blinking. It also sends shortwave infrared through cleanly, with almost no loss. The halogen cycle keeps the filament stable, so output stays consistent over time. And it handles frequent on/off cycles without giving up early. The reflective coating does one job: it pushes IR energy forward, so less heat wanders off and your control stays steady. Then there’s the R7s connector. Double-ended, drop-in compatible with standard sockets in blowing machines. Swapping is fast, and alignment stays solid.

How it performs on the line—and what to keep in mind

In PET blowing, the lamp heats preforms fast and evenly. Cycle times stay tight, and rejects don’t pile up. The shortwave IR gets into the polymer quickly, giving you repeatable temperature control across the preform wall. Wiring and maintenance are straightforward, and the quartz envelope is tough enough to survive a busy plant floor. Just one thing: that 2500W density is serious. You’ll want a properly matched cooling and ventilation setup to keep the lamp and nearby parts within safe operating temperatures. We designed these lamps to be practical—field-proven, no-nonsense heat for blowing machines, where output, size, and reliability all have to pull their weight.
