Flexible Thermal Guide

A small heater can still have a large effect on process stability. Warm-up time and steady-state control can need different power levels. A pi heater uses thin polyimide film around a patterned resistive heating circuit. The same approach helps with prototypes and production equipment. The aim is steady heat without making the assembly harder to build. Its low mass can help the surface warm quickly. Decide whether a sensor should be built in or mounted nearby. Senso
