Watlow builds a great heater that is robust, accurate and easy to control. They're offer a huge variety of heaters in different sizes, intensity and configurations but in the event that they don't produce a heater that is suitable for your application, you can call their technical support team and have a custom heater built to order.
On several occasions throughout the years, I've called up Watlow and have given them a brief description of my application, they've always been able to helps me size a heater that would work on my fixtures. Ordering from them is easy and they typically deliver promptly.
Strengths: Watlow deisgns and manufactures electric heaters, temperature controllers and sensors. Their heaters in particular are well designed and last for many years. You can contact their technical support team and they can guide you through the part selection to ensure that your design is using the proper heating element for your machine/tool.
Needs to improve: Their temperature controllers are a little confusing to configure.
We're a small assembly and we procure various control components from WATLOW. We've been impressed by both their product quality and level of client care. While we typically source controllers, they do offer a wide selection at seemingly competitive rates. Customer service is always easy to reach and accountable. Issues are addressed immediately. Knowledgeable team makes it a point to usher us towards the most cost effective solution that fits our needs. Accurate quotes, solid lead time and quality made for a positive experience. Will order from again and happy to refer.
