Infrared Lamps For Use In Plastic Manufacturing


Heat plays an important part in the processing of plastics. It is used for softening & forming operations such as stretching & blow molding.


It can also be used for drying plastics, glues and sealing packaging such as blister packs.


Infrared provides a safe energy efficient solution, which provides fast processing times.


Victory has a comprehensive range of linear quartz IR lamps for industries using PET (PolyEthylene Terephthalate) in products such as food packaging and beverage containers.


The high quality and longevity of Victory PET lamps means they are used world-wide by many machine manufacturers.

Victory Lighting PET Lamps

Victory PET Lamps Provide More Heat and Last Longer.


  • High efficiency: reduced running cost
  • Life 5000+ hours: reduced replacement cost
  • Most energy-efficient reflector coating
  • Clear or ceramic coated
  • Clear lamps compatible with external reflectors
  • 1000W – 3000W


Short Wave and Near Infrared models available

Victory PET reflector lamps focus IR heat forward in the direction where it is required, reducing the loss of heat to the rear and improving efficiency.


A reflective coating is applied to the surface of the lamp, usually covering 180° of the quartz tube. Infrared heat is emitted forward through the quartz tubing, or is reflected off the back of the tube to then pass out from the front.

Tests of Victory PET lamps against a major competitor show that they provide more heat energy per Watt, so will save money for the user. They also have longer life than many competitors, which reduces replacement cost.


That is why Victory PET lamps are used by many OEM equipment suppliers throughout the world, and are the first choice of replacement lamp by PET manufacturers.

Victory PET Wave Length Comparison Chart

A clear uncoated lamp emits heat in all directions. Without a reflector, a large proportion can be wasted.


A reflector coating redirects heat towards the substrate resulting in improved performance and energy savings.


The irradiance graph opposite shows that a clear lamp emits energy uniformally in all directions, while a reflector lamp has higher output in the 0-180 degree range (front of lamp) and reduced output in the 180 - 0 sector (rear of lamp)


Victory reflector lamps are available with two types of coating: gold and ceramic.


The choice of reflector depends on the application. Victory can advise on which technology to use.


The irradiance graph opposite shows the difference in performance of gold and ceramic reflectors.
