For a long time, we just pushed hot air around. But lately, we&rsquo;ve been moving toward infrared (IR) heating for our cleanroom trolleys, and the difference is night and day. It really comes down to how the heat actually gets to the part.</p> <h2 id="the-problem-with-waiting-on-air">The problem with <a href="https://goldisgood.com">waiting</a> on air</h2> <p>Think about forced air. You have to heat the air first, and then the air has to heat the part. It’s slow. Plus, all that blowing air creates turbulence. In a class-100 cleanroom, turbulence is basically a nightmare you don&rsquo;t want. IR is different. It&rsquo;s radiant energy. It just hits the substrate directly. We&rsquo;ve seen warm-up times drop from minutes to literally seconds. When you stop fighting with air mass, your batch time plummets. That&rsquo;s why you&rsquo;re seeing IR pop up everywhere in high-throughput lines. It just makes sense.</p>
