Heating Pad/Mat

<< < (2/2)

I think a sick solution would be to put heating strips on copper plate thats soldered to copper mesh and coated with thermally conductive flexible polymer.

With a insulator on top

Pu foam cut into strips like plate mail armor

Mc master sells heating strips that are adhesive backed. They are thick nichrome foil like a maze embedded in rubber. Would be a heavy skirt and press into stuff good

You cannot set the temperature except by providing more than enough power and a thermostat.

I have built countless bed electric blankets / pads. All you need is nichrome wire and a sewing machine and you can make the size and shape you choose.  I did not provide any thermostat and I made them powerful so I could get into a toasty bed. Spread out they worked fine but one day it was crumpled in a corner under the blankets and it started a fire.

I do not understand what this means. Why don't you use nichrome wire which is the standard for these things?

daniel444:
can you use a hot air gun???

martin1454:
Look up Keenovo heaters, they have both stores on Ebay and Aliexpress, and sells tons of different size heaters.

Go down the path of Drum heaters. Most of the big guys in Element or Temperature control will be able to make you a custom one. In particular the silicone drum heaters would suit your glass application due to the flex.
