Hightemp-TF Thick Film Stainless Steel-Based Heater

Stainless steel thick film heaterDatec designs and manufactures stainless steel thick film heaters (HighTemp-TF) by printing heating elements directly onto a stainless steel substrate. Stainless Steel thick film heaters are compact, lightweight and generate heat quickly and efficiently.

Stainless steel thick film heaters are suitable for a variety of applications such as steam generation, grills & griddles, packaging lines, 3D printing and many others.

Datec’s HighTemp-TF technology is comprised of a dielectric, resistor, conductor and a finish coat layer printed on a stainless steel substrate using screen-printing technology and cured at high temperatures. The resulting heater is a fast, reliable, and high-performing solution. HighTemp-TF heater is ideal for applications that need high performance, reliability and energy efficiency.

Stainless steel heaters are capable for applications that need high temperatures of up to 840 °F (450 °C). The heaters can be applied to complex shapes to generate targeted heat. The heat flux (watt density) can be as high as 200 W/in² (31 W/cm²). Datec’s engineers develop custom heater designs to meet the customer requirements. Contact Us to learn more
