Getting Your Heat Right with Sidel Matrix IR Radiators

If you’re trying to match the heating curve of an OEM Sidel Matrix system, you already know that just matching the wattage isn’t enough. It’s not that simple. We built our 2500W IR radiators to be true drop-in replacements—meaning they hit the same spectral output and heat density as the originals. Why the 2500W number actually matters We stuck with 2500W for a reason. You need the PET preform to hit that glass transition temperature perfectly. If it’s too cold, you’re in trouble. Too hot? You’ve scorched the surface. Here’s the thing: if your wattage is off by even 5%, your temperature profile shifts. That’s when you start seeing those annoying uneven walls in your blown bottles. We keep the parameters a 1:1 match so you don’t have to deal with that headache. The guts of the lamp We use high-purity quartz glass because these things take a beating with rapid thermal cycling. Inside, there’s a halogen cycle that keeps the filament clean, which basically means the lamps last longer. But the real secret is the coating. We use a specific short-wave IR coating that pushes the energy right into the preform. It stops the heat from just bouncing off and wasting energy on your oven walls. And don’t worry about the install. The connectors have the exact same footprint as the ones you’re replacing. You just wire them up. No messing around with sockets or bending brackets. A quick heads-up on airflow There is one thing to keep in mind. Running a 2500W high-density tube puts a lot of pressure on your oven’s ventilation. These lamps are great for high-speed production, but they run hot. Make sure your cooling blowers are clean. If the airflow is choked, that heat builds up and can eat away at your sockets way faster than it should. We focused on the raw electrical and thermal data so you get the same ramp-up and soak times you’re used to with factory parts. It just works.

SIG Blomax 10: The Right Bulb for Your KHS Heater

We built the SIG Blomax 10 infrared bulb to be a straight-up, drop-in replacement for KHS blow molding machines. Its whole job is simple: keep the PET preform area evenly hot, so your line runs the way it should—steady, without hot spots.

Power, Voltage, and Size: What It Brings

This bulb runs at 2500W and 400V. That combo isn’t random. It’s exactly what you need to pack a lot of heat into a small space, so the PET heats up fast when the cycle demands it. And the length? 300mm. That’s the standard size that fits right into the existing lamp housing on KHS machines—no modifications, no messing around. The shape is matched to the preform path, so the heat lands where it matters.

Aoki blow molding IR radiator lamp bulb

On an Aoki line, a weak or drifting IR lamp isn’t just a heating issue—it drags you into scrap, rework, and emergency maintenance. You spend time chasing inconsistent preform temperatures, then watch the same lamps burn out way too fast, spiking spares and downtime. We built the Aoki blow molding IR radiator lamp bulb to break that cycle. What matters, technically We match Aoki’s OEM heating architecture with short-wave infrared emitters in a quartz envelope, tuned for quick response and stable output across the heating tunnel. Pick standard power ratings that align with Aoki blow molder zones, choose 220V/240V options, and get filament geometry that delivers repeatable spectral density. The R7s connector and end-cap dimensions are engineered to drop into existing lamp holders without modification—so you keep the same alignment, reflector coupling, and thermal profile. Here’s why it works in stretch blow molding: preform heating is the gate to consistent bottle weight, crystal clarity, and neck integrity. These IR lamps put heat down fast and even, helping you hit the setpoint quickly and hold it through the cycle. That cuts the temperature drift that shows up as bursts, thin walls, or weak threads. The payoff is fewer rejects, more stable cycle times, and less energy wasted chasing overrun. Replacement intervals stretch because the filament design and quartz stability resist hot-spot degradation—so you’re changing lamps less often and saving the labor that comes with each change. Installation is straightforward on Aoki machines, but clean handling is non-negotiable. Oils and residues on quartz create hot spots and shorten life. Before swapping, verify voltage and connector orientation against your machine’s spec, and make sure the reflector is intact and correctly positioned. Reflector condition drives heating uniformity as much as the lamp itself. Expect peak output in the short-wave band, so don’t touch preforms right out of the tunnel—give them a moment to cool.
