These shroud designs are constructed from stainless steel sheet metal or cast aluminum. They are self-contained systems that can be provided as turnkey solutions, minimizing labor and installation costs while significantly reducing downtime and maintenance compared to traditional liquid cooling and heating cast-in band heaters. The engineering of these two components is precisely aligned to function seamlessly together, delivering thermally efficient heating and air cooling capabilities, and addressing the limitations of liquid-cooled cast-in aluminum band heaters.
