Drying & Curing Systems
We have an extensive range of Infrared lamps and emitters at varying wavelengths to ensure we can offer the correct solution to your exact application to determine the very best IR emitter for exactly what you require; be it curing, coating, drying, heating and many other applications.
Infrared technology offers rapid and energy-efficient heating. Unlike conventional methods, it directly heats objects or surfaces without warming the surrounding air, resulting in faster temperature control, making this ideal for applications like industrial drying, space heating, and food processing.
Victory Lighting’s state-of-the-art R&D facility exemplifies its commitment to innovation in infrared technology. By investing in cutting-edge research, we help develop advanced solutions tailored to specific industry needs, driving efficiency and sustainability in heating, curing, and beyond.
Victory Lighting delivers cost-effective solutions by integrating energy-efficient infrared technology into its products. Because we care about our customers, we also offer cost-effective replacement lamp options without compromising on quality or efficiency.

How Infrared Heating Works
Manufacturers need heating systems that are fast, efficient and easy to control. Infrared (IR) technology meets these demands by delivering instant, targeted heat without requiring direct contact with the product.
IR lamps emit electromagnetic waves in the infrared spectrum. When these waves hit the surface of a material, they are absorbed and converted into heat. Because infrared heating does not rely on air movement, it remains consistent even in environments with varying airflow.
Each material has its own unique absorption spectrum. This means it only absorbs infrared energy at specific wavelengths, while other wavelengths may pass through or reflect off the surface. For optimal efficiency, it’s essential to match the emitter’s wavelength to the material being heated.
Our Technical Department works closely with you so that the emitters we provide are precisely tuned to your product’s materials. This guarantees maximum heating performance and energy efficiency for your specific application.
Automotive In-Line Processing Using IR Heating
An example from the construction of a new process line for an automotive factory. This has helped reduce the cost and energy consumption of the process while at the same time reduced the line length by over 60m. A process that used to take 20 minutes to complete is now performed in 3 minutes (only the heating stage is shown here on the demonstration unit).
Infrared in PET processing
Victory Lighting recently developed our ESE infrared lamp range. These lamps designed for use in PET processing have been developed by our experienced Technical Team to provide increased performance while reducing energy consumption by approx. 17.4%. Along with our standard range of lamps, we also work closely with OEM's who may require their own specification of branded lamps.
Paint curing in the automotive industry
Using Short wave infrared for curing paint can provide many benefits to the Automotive Industry. By using Victory Lighting’s shortwave IR paint driers, drying times are significantly reduced as well as improved energy efficiency compared to other curing methods. As short wave IR penetrates into the substrate of the material being cured, creating an even heat distribution which stops the paint from skinning or cracking.
