Introduction

We built the SIPA SFR 12 infrared radiator for one reason: to keep pace with the punishing rhythm of SACMI rotary blow molding lines. In these machines, heating sets the beat. If the lamp can’t hit temperature fast, the whole turret stumbles. So we engineered the SFR 12 as a shortwave infrared lamp that wakes up instantly, holds steady, and drops right into SACMI-compatible heating stations.

Power, Voltage, and Geometry—Why It Matters

The SFR 12 is a high-density heater, shaped to fit the tight corners of rotary blow molding sections. Its size and electrical specs aren’t random—they’re matched to the process. You get heat exactly where you need it, without fighting for space. It runs at 400V, which keeps things stable on the machine’s power system and helps curb startup surges. That matters because fast response and high wattage density push the electrical limits. Here’s the trade-off: packing this much heat into a short tube means your cooling and airflow have to be up to the task. If the area around the lamp runs too hot, output drifts and lamp life suffers.
