Air Heaters
At its most basic level, an air heater works by passing air across a hot element to form a flow of hot air at a specified temperature. That hot air can then be used for a variety of applications ranging from space heating to drying hair, or from stripping paint to heating parts in a manufacturing process. This white paper will walk you through the decisions that need to be made when specifying an air heater for your next project.

Blowers
Although blowers are commonly used in manufacturing, it can be difficult to find good sources of information on the different types of blowers and how to choose the appropriate one. The purpose of this white paper is to give a good basic understanding of the different types of blowers and provide you with the technical information required to make a good decision for your application.

Heat Shrink Tunnels
A heat tunnel, sometimes called a shrink tunnel, is an enclosed area that applies heat to an object. Heat tunnels are generally found above or enveloping a section of conveyor belt to allow for automated travel through the tunnel. The primary use for a heat tunnel is the activation of heat shrink labels and tamper bands on a container; however, they are also used to cure paints and heat parts.

System Design
On the surface, designing an effective hot air system can seem like a simple exercise, but the apparent simplicity disguises the underlying complexity which, when ignored, can result in wasted time and money.
