Must contain features for Heaters with ceramic bands

A production process is a very wide mix of things. Especially when the products are meant for industrial purposes, the dynamism increases. This is because they have to withstand the test of time and force. One of the important machines in this regard are the ceramic band heaters. They are a prime object used in the process of blow and injection molding and is also used in the process of extrusion. These bands provide heating around the barrel to provide ample temperature for adjoining ceramic tiles and bricks. Here are some of the prominent features that these bands must contain.

Resistance to abrasion

Any industrial grade machinery must be resistant to abrasion. However, in the particular case of these ceramic bands, the resistance should be a little more. This is because they are in direct contact of the ceramic material, which can be quite coarse until finished. This can hamper the heat transfer and contact which is extremely necessary for the purpose of binding of the material. For this purpose they are contained with a braid made of stainless steel that helps in preventing breakages.

Lead wire strain relief

It is a form of termination that provides a strain of relief around the connection and the lead point. This is a condition very much required for dependable connection between the material and the band. The feature also enables to enhance the efficiency that is much required during the operations.

Screw terminal

This is by far the most common type of termination. This one terminal is placed centrally across the gaps. It can also contain two terminals that can be centered at each half of the band made of two pieces. This twin edge advantage proves to be a very defining factor for termination of faults and easy binding process with elimination of errors at every step.
