About Cast-In Micro Tubular Heater | Compact Electric Heating Element for Moulds, Dies & Industrial Heating Applications

Cast-In Micro Tubular Heater is a compact and high-performance electric tubular heating element designed to be cast or embedded directly into metal components for efficient and uniform heating. The micro tubular construction allows the heating element to be installed in compact spaces while providing effective heat transfer to the surrounding material.

RIBCO Cast-In Micro Tubular Heaters are particularly suitable for applications where space is limited and precise, localized heating is required. The heating element can be incorporated into aluminium, brass or other suitable metal bodies to create a customized heating assembly for dies, moulds, plates, blocks and industrial tooling.

The compact tubular construction allows the heater to follow complex shapes, grooves, curves and customized heating paths, making it suitable for components where conventional heating elements cannot be easily installed. Once cast into the metal body, the heating element provides close contact with the surrounding material for efficient heat transfer.

These Cast-In Micro Tubular Heating Elements are suitable for a wide range of industrial applications including plastic injection moulding, extrusion machinery, dies, moulds, sealing machines, hot plates, packaging equipment, thermoforming machinery and specialized industrial heating systems.

RIBCO Cast-In Micro Tubular Heaters can be manufactured according to the required tube diameter, heated length, bending radius, overall shape, heating path, voltage, wattage and resistance. The element can be formed into customized configurations according to the component geometry and required heating zones.

The heater can be cast into aluminium, brass or other suitable metal bodies, depending on the required thermal characteristics, operating conditions and application. The cast-in construction provides a robust heating solution and helps maintain close contact between the heating element and the heated body.

Multiple heating zones can also be incorporated into a single cast-in assembly where required. This allows different areas of a mould, die or plate to be heated according to their individual temperature requirements.

RIBCO Cast-In Micro Tubular Heaters are suitable for both OEM manufacturing and replacement applications. They can be manufactured according to customer drawings, existing samples, heating path layouts or specified electrical and mechanical requirements.

The compact size of the tubular element makes it particularly suitable for small moulds, narrow grooves, compact dies and components with restricted installation space. The heating path can be customized to achieve the required heat distribution across the component.

Customization is available as per customer requirement for tube diameter, heating path, bending radius, overall dimensions, voltage, wattage, resistance, cast material, terminal configuration and mounting arrangement.
