Your <strong>Flexible</strong> <strong>Heaters</strong> <strong>Design</strong> <strong>Guide</strong><br />
Purpose of this design guide<br />
1. Understand how flexible Thermofoil heaters can work in<br />
your application<br />
Carefully review the information in this design guide and<br />
other online resources at www.minco.com/heater/.<br />
Understanding the capabilities of the different types of<br />
flexible heaters will allow you to choose the best heater to<br />
fit your application.<br />
2. Select a flexible heater for prototyping<br />
After learning about the available options of flexible heaters,<br />
choose a stock or standard heater, or heaters, which will<br />
allow you to begin proof-of-concept testing and prototyping<br />
in your application.<br />
For more information, download the white paper entitled<br />
"Prototyping Techniques for Etched-Foil <strong>Heaters</strong>" at the<br />
E2E - Engineer to Engineer - Online Community:<br />
www.minco.com/e2e.<br />
3. Specify a long-term heating solution for your application<br />
When you have successfully prototyped with stock and<br />
standard flexible heaters, Minco's experienced design<br />
engineers can help you design an accurate and affordable<br />
heating solution to perfectly fit your application.<br />
