Ceramic Band Heaters
Our Ceramic Band Heaters were developed to meet industrial requirements for high-temperature lasting heaters. They are ideally suited to comply with today’s new resins, which call for ever-increasing process temperatures. An additional advantage of the Ceramic Band Heater is that they transfer heat through conduction and radiation. This makes their tightness on barrels less critical; thus they are less prone to thermal expansion problems. Theoretically, there are no restrictions on the diameter that ceramic band heaters can attain.

Mica Band Heaters
Mica Band heaters are efficient and economical solutions to the heating requirements of many applications. Mica Band heaters can attain a maximum sheath temperature of 900°F, but with different electrical termination styles, clamping mechanisms, and ability to accommodate holes and cutouts, mica band heaters are successfully used in many applications but are mostly sought for in the plastics industry. The Mica Band Heaters made by us utilize different types of Top Grade Mica. The thickness of each mica layer is carefully selected to balance between the insulating characteristics of mica and the ease of heat transfer from the heating core to the machine barrel.

Band heater manufacturer in Pune
Thermosys Heating Systems Pvt. Ltd. manufactures ceramic and mica band heaters in Pune for injection moulding machines, blow moulding machines, extruders, drum heating and ovens. Each band is made to your inside diameter and width, with the termination, clamping style, thermocouple hole and cut-outs your machine needs.
Ceramic or mica – which should you choose?
- Mica band heaters – economical, thin and fast heating; best where the band can be clamped tightly. Maximum sheath temperature around 900 °F (about 480 °C) depending on construction.
- Ceramic band heaters – heat by conduction and radiation, so fit on the barrel is less critical; insulated for lower heat loss; suited to high-temperature resins and large diameters.

Frequently asked questions
How can I make band heaters last longer?
Clamp the band tightly and re-tighten after the first heat-up, keep the barrel clean, protect the terminals from plastic and moisture, and use a working thermocouple and controller.
Can band heaters have holes and cut-outs?
Yes. Band heaters can be made with thermocouple holes, cut-outs and different clamping and termination styles to suit your machine.
