Thermal Loop: An Introduction to the Unifying Concept Behind Watlow’s Products and Processes
For Watlow, the core concept is the thermal loop, which drives every product and project. This paper, the first in a series, focuses on the three foundational components of the thermal loop: heaters, sensors, and controllers. Understanding this concept will clarify how Watlow’s products, projects, and expertise fit into the bigger picture.
Thermal Loop Systems
Heat treatment processes are a crucial component of many manufacturing processes, and thermal loop solutions have become increasingly popular for achieving improved temperature control and consistent outcomes. But many OEMs are missing opportunities where thermal loop solutions offer more than just greater control. In this article, by Engineer Live Magazine, Peter Sherwin, and Thomas Rücker,explore the possibilities of thermal loop solutions.
