Finned Cast Aluminum Heater
Cast Aluminum heater is the standard heater in Tempco shroud system designs with a standard 1/4″ gap between heater halves.
Bolt and nut clamping used in cast aluminum shroud designs
Vented Ceramic Band Heater
Thisvented heater was developed to provide another means of heating and cooling high temperature extrusion processes. To reduce the cost and weight of typical shroud systems, Tempco developed a low mass, non-thermally insulated ceramic band heater to work in tandem with a highly efficient stainless steel sheet metal shroud for high temperature heating and cooling extrusion processes. Forced air blowers are used for cooling. The ambient airflow enters the shroud, circulates around the ceramic heater and barrel, removes the heat from the heater and the process and exits the shroud opposite the entrance port.
NOTE: Not available on Cast Aluminum Shrouds.
Maxiband Heater
The channels in the extruded aluminum track are precisely sized to accept a .315 diameter tubular heating element and provide an excellent heat sink for rapid heat transfer and good temperature uniformity.
