The DLS-ECO Series provides solid-state diode laser heating to replace less efficient infrared bulbs and environmentally unfriendly gas fired furnaces. Extremely high power conversion efficiency along with exceptionally low impact on the ambient factory environment make the Cost-of-Ownership and Return-on-Investment of a diode heater compelling. DLS-ECO lasers are an excellent solution to dry industrial coatings such as battery slurries, paint and powder coating. DLS-ECO is also used by textile, food and semiconductor wafer manufacturers as an attractive alternative to traditional heating methods.

The DLS-ECO Series announces the arrival of solid-state heating to replace less efficient infrared bulbs and environmentally unfriendly gas fired furnaces. Extremely high power conversion efficiency along with exceptionally low impact on the ambient factory environment make the Cost-of-Ownership and Return-on-Investment of a diode heater compelling.
A diode heater operates cold, wasting no energy warming insulating walls or the factory floor. Rather, all energy is highly directed as laser light onto the media being processed. Between batches the diode heater is off, not idling, so no energy is consumed when it is not needed.
Laser light dries below the surface providing a more efficient process than is possible in a thermal convection oven, meaning a DLS-ECO solution is up to 4X smaller and up to 4X faster. The open, cool environment is inviting to thermal metrology enabling tighter process control benefitting from instantaneous, on-the-fly temperature adjustments. The DLS-ECO is well suited to dry coatings such as lithium-ion battery electrode slurries, or to cure paint or powder coat. DLS-ECO is widely used in the food industry as a high throughput option replacing traditional ovens, and in the textile industry as a high efficiency alternative to force hot air drying. When the DLS-ECO beam is more tightly concentrated, the diode laser heater system is capable of annealing metals or sintering ceramics, while the extremely tight process control enabled by DLS-ECO has also found applications in the semiconductor industry.
