The VACUPRESS IR2103 DUAL is a high-capacity infrared oven engineered for demanding orthotics, prosthetics, thermoforming, and plastic-forming workshops. Designed to handle large sheets, shell blanks, or batch processes — and to support two independent heating tasks at once — this oven combines powerful radiant heating, precise temperature control, and flexible workflow management.  Key Features & Benefits Very large heated area — 2140 × 1040 mm: The expansive chamber lets you heat entire large-format plastic sheets or shell blanks (e.g. seat shells, full-size orthoses, large molds) in one piece — reducing seams, joints, and material handling.  Dual independent heating zones / dual thermostat control: The “DUAL” design allows you to run two separate heating processes simultaneously, including different temperature settings — for example, heating two different materials or two sheets up to ~1 × 1 m each. This increases flexibility and throughput.  Infrared radiant heating — fast, efficient, surface-focused: As with other VACUPRESS infrared ovens, the IR2103 uses direct radiant heat to warm the material directly rather than heating ambient air. This yields much faster cycle times, immediate readiness (no long pre-heat), and overall energy efficiency.  Accurate material-surface temperature control: An optical IR temperature sensor continuously measures the actual surface temperature of the material — not the air. Combined with PID control and dual-zone regulation, this ensures precise, repeatable heating without the risk of scorching or overheating.  Modern user interface with touch-panel controls: The 3.5″ touch-panel controller displays both the target (“set”) and actual material temperature. Built-in timer and ramp-up functions, graphical heating-process display, and a USB interface for firmware updates make operation intuitive and future-proof.  Flexible material handling with mobile tray & optional frame holders: Typically includes a roll-about tray on casters (for ergonomic loading/unloading of large sheets), and frame holders that can support blister-forming or deep-drawing frames — helping integrate the oven into vacuum-forming or thermoforming workflows.  Energy-efficient & workshop-optimized design: Because infrared heating acts directly on materials, no long idle heating is needed. The oven avoids unnecessary energy use, reduces warm-up times, and lowers heat emission, making it practical even in busy orthotic and prosthetic workshops.  Typical Use Cases Heating large thermoplastic sheets for custom orthotic / prosthetic shells, seating shells, or large-form components in one piece. Running two simultaneous jobs — e.g., pre-heating two different materials or two blanks of different size/thickness — to maximize throughput in busy production settings. Prepping blanks for vacuum-forming or deep-drawing of insoles, foot orthoses, AFOs / KAFOs, prosthetic sockets, or structural shells. Batch-processing multiple sheets or molds in a single heating cycle — useful for labs, clinics, or medium-to-large manufacturing workshops. Situations requiring precise, repeatable heating — such as composite prep, pre-preg processing (with vacuum-bagging), or sensitive thermoforming needing exact temperature control. Why Choose VACUPRESS IR2103 DUAL The IR2103 DUAL stands out as a powerful, versatile, and production-grade infrared oven — ideal for large-format, high-throughput, or multi-task orthotic & prosthetic workshops. Its dual-zone capability, large heating area, precise surface-temperature monitoring, and efficient infrared heating make it a core asset when you need to process big sheets, run concurrent jobs, or maintain consistent quality across many parts. For labs or shops aiming to boost capacity, reduce cycle time, and improve reliability — this oven offers a top-tier heating solution.

The VACUPRESS 900 XR COOL-TEC is a top-tier vacuum-deep-drawing machine built for demanding orthopedic, prosthetic, orthotic, and custom footwear workshops. It combines a large forming frame with advanced heating, vacuum control, and a built-in cooling system — delivering precision forming for insoles, footbeds, orthoses, prosthetic shells, test shoes, and even composite parts. Key Features & Benefits Large formation area & versatile frame: The working frame measures 870 × 660 mm, allowing production of larger orthotic components, full-length insoles, foot orthoses, prosthetic shells, and orthotic shoe components.  UNILOCK clamping system: Thanks to the patented UNILOCK material-clamping mechanism, the frame opens and closes with a single handle (gas-spring assisted), and adapts automatically to material thicknesses from 0.1 mm up to 12.0 mm — no manual adjustment needed. This ensures ease of use, quick material change-overs, and reliable sealing for vacuum forming.  Integrated infrared heating: 12 infrared quartz heating elements (with reflectors and two-zone control) provide uniform, efficient heating of thermoplastic sheets, enabling consistent and accurate deep-drawing. Heating time is adjustable (30–199 seconds), with LED display for set and remaining time, and automatic shut-off when the cycle completes.  Powerful, maintenance-free vacuum system: Dual oil-free vacuum pumps (each 0.45 kW, 12 m³/h, two-stage) deliver stable suction, ensuring uniform forming even for large or complex shapes. Vacuum is automatically controlled: pumps activate when the frame is closed and maintain suction until forming is complete.  Built-in COOL-TEC cooling system: Special air-jet cooling cuts down cooling time of thermoplastic parts by up to 75%, greatly reducing cycle time and boosting production throughput — ideal for busy workshops or high-volume orthotic manufacturing.  Robust construction & workshop readiness: Solid frame with smooth vertical-lift frame guidance (16 steel-rail ball-bearings), adjustable central locking mechanism, integrated work-area illumination (halogen lights), external vacuum-outlet option, and compatibility with standard orthotics materials — making the 900 XR COOL-TEC a stable, reliable core of any O&P or custom-shoe workshop.  Typical Use Cases Manufacturing custom insoles, footbeds, and shoe orthotic inserts — large-format or small-scale, as needed. Producing foot orthoses, ankle-foot orthoses (AFOs), prosthetic shells, braces, and other orthotic components where precision and consistency are critical. Creating test shoes, trial shoes, or thermoformed orthotic shell prototypes, including work with composite materials or fiber-reinforced thermoplastics (e.g., carbon-fiber composites) when using compatible materials.  Workshops requiring efficient, high-throughput vacuum forming with reduced cycle times thanks to COOL-TEC — ideal for clinics, rehabilitation centers, orthotic labs, and small to medium-size manufacturing facilities. Why VACUPRESS 900 XR COOL-TEC Stands Out The 900 XR COOL-TEC represents one of the most comprehensive vacuum-forming solutions available for the orthotics, prosthetics, and custom footwear industries. By combining a large working frame with a user-friendly UNILOCK system, powerful vacuum, precise infrared heating, and rapid cooling — it enables consistent, repeatable thermoforming across a wide variety of applications.
