Infrared Heaters Set to Show in Three Dimensions
Oct 12 2010
Ceramicx have completed new online technology that is set to offer its customers 24/7 online 3D viewing of all its infrared heating elements, heat platens and ovens.
The project has deployed the Rhino 3D software programmes and is a successful world-first in bringing infrared technology and ‘heat work’ design straight to the viewer and specifier.
Founder and Managing Director Frank Wilson, said: “Not only will the sales appeal of our products be enhanced, it will also be much easier to envisage the specifying and engineering of components and how to order them. Any manufacturer with infrared heating systems to design and make can now simply go online and map the Ceramicx 3D image into their processing systems in order to evaluate if it will be fit for purpose. The consistency of product design and the increased level of detail on the Ceramicx website will further enhance the application characteristics of the infrared emitters. The quartz medium wave radiation characteristics can also be further defined and understood.”
Ceramicx customers are now able to ‘tour’ a variety of products in three dimensions – while accessing a variety of data in digital form. Earlier this year, Ceramicx installed new systems of quality assurance and product traceability, which the new 3D capabilities will complement.
Part of the customer benefits of purchasing Ceramicx products online will include sets of fully scaled and specified drawings that the customer will then be able to use and manipulate in three dimensions on their own CAD systems. The new 3D control will further enable Ceramicx to provide a fuller and bespoke service in regard to infrared specialist heater design.
Ceramicx are also preparing for future needs of parametric design. Customers will be asked for specific information and the design and drawings of ovens and platen systems for thermoforming machines and production will be entirely produced on-line.
