HEATING elements: in which fields are they used?

Published the 26.08.2025

Usually, when we think of an electric heating element, the first thing that comes to mind is the oven at home, the toaster, or the hairdryer, all appliances for direct personal use and of relative importance. However, we do not think about, or even imagine, what other fields and uses the infamous heating elements fulfil;

let's find out together.

When we mention the term ‘electrical heating resistance ’, it is obvious that we link it directly to the concept of "heat‘, i.e. a form of energy that is transferred between two materials with different intrinsic temperatures, which manifests itself thanks to the motion of the particles that make up the material in question. But what are the systems by which ’heat" is transferred from one body to another called? Essentially, in physics we have three systems through which heat moves, namely:

RADIATION heat uses electromagnetic waves as a means of movement between bodies

CONDUCTION heat uses direct contact between bodies

CONVECTION heat utilises the movement of a fluid or gas between bodies

For each of these systems, there are obviously heating resistors suitable for meeting the relevant purposes:

RADIATION:

  • Infrared heating elements (cup type)
  •  

  • Heating elements with fins
  •  

  • Shaped heating elements for ‘air’ heating
  •  

  • Bare wire heating elements

CONDUCTION:

  • Heating elements flat
  •  

  • Heating elements with mica band
  •  

  • Heating elements with nozzle band
  •  

  • Ceramic heating elements
  •  

  • Heating elements for drum heaters with silicone rubber coating
  •  

  • Heating elements with cartridge

CONVECTION:

  • Heating elements tubular
  •  

  • Heating elements on cap
  •  

  • Immersion tubular heating elements

It is therefore easy to deduce that the fields of application of electric heating elements are diverse and not limited to domestic ovens or hairdryers. They are used in a variety of industrial processes:

  • manufacturing sector : plastic moulding or extrusion, painting
  •  

  • wood sector : drying/dehydration,
  •  

  • footwear industry
  •  

  • food sector (dairy, honey, oil, honey)
  •  

  • wine sector
  •  

  • tanning sector leather
  •  

  • steel industry
  •  

  • automotive sector
  •  

  • pharmaceutical sector

The technology of electric heating elements will become increasingly widespread in the industrial sector, as it will cover most of the requirements of work processes, in which there are still many alternatives that use mineral resources as fuel to generate heat, but we know that the future is and will continue to be ELECTRIC.
