Controllers are one of the most popular items we sell at Heaters, Controls and Sensors. It is in our name, after all. But what is a temperature controller? Why do you need one? And why is HCS the best choice to supply your new controller? Welcome to our new series: “Product Spotlight,” where we will answer all of these questions and more. In this series, we will highlight the products that HCS does best, starting off with our most popular item: temperature controllers.
But what is a temperature controller?
Temperature controllers are specialized devices or a sophisticated adaptive cruise control that
allow for precise adjustments to process temperatures. They usually turn the
heating device completely on and off as required or proportionally deliver the
specific amount of heat energy to maintain an exact temperature. This is an
essential function for any industrial manufacturing process that requires
precise temperatures, such as in Plastic Injection Molding, Extrusion, Food Processing,
Packaging, Oil and Gas Production, and many others.
But why are controllers so important?
It is hard to express just how important temperature controllers are, as they serve a variety of vital functions in various industries. However, we can focus on one example to demonstrate the importance of temperature controllers: their crucial role in glass and plastic manufacturing. Without the precise temperature control provided by a quality temperature controller, the manufacturing process for these materials would fall apart. When manufactured with incorrect temperatures, glass can become cloudy, fragile, and misshapen. Similarly, without accurate temperature control, plastics will lose their sheen and become brittle. These are just two of the countless examples of why precise temperature control is so important.
Incorrect temperature control matters in all types of industries, from pizzerias to pharmaceutical companies to paint curing studios to aerospace manufacturers. If your industrial process involves any sort of heating or cooling, you need a high precision temperature controller.
