About TurboFlex
WHO WE ARE
In 2013, with 30 years of experience in converting of thin foils, plastics and adhesives, TurboFlex Heaters, owned by DG Innovations LLC, entered the countertop heater business with a product line called FeelsWarm Technology. Solving the problem of granite countertops feeling cold to the touch, we began producing custom-shaped, large-format foil heaters (often more than 5 square feet each) to attach to the underside of stone surfaces.
As the company grew, we began marketing our capability of producing custom flexible heaters in ultra-fast turn time into the traditional flexible heater market where designers and engineers also have the need to obtain flexible heaters in a few days.
TurboFlex Heaters is ideal for new product development activities and prototyping. Our quick-turn fabrication capabilities include midlevel production projects so that customers can continue working with us as project volumes rise.
WHAT WE DO
TurboFlex provides the largest range of standard-sized heaters (rectangular and circular) in the industry, and offers heaters in three material types: Polyimide (Kapton®), Teflon Woven Fiberglass, and High Temperature Polyester. The firm’s manufacturing capabilities in Rock Valley, Iowa cover the full spectrum of volume from prototypes through production requirements.
• More than 500 Standard heaters available to ship in 5 days.
• UL Recognized options.
• Small and large sizes (up to 24″ X 48″).
• Temperature up to 125°C for HT Polyester, 150°C for Polyimide and 225°C for Teflon.
• Less than .010″ thick.
• Low voltage DC to 240VAC.
• Commonly sold with mounting adhesive on the back surface.
• Available with attached components and customized wire harnesses.
• No prints required for prototype and early-stage applications.
We manufacture flexible etched foil heaters in the U.S., enabling designers and engineers to integrate heating solutions into their products. The thin profile and the precision thermal properties of a flexible heater provides unique advantages in the package design.
With our roots in large format foil-based heater fabrication, we can produce heaters of all sizes, ranging from 50 square feet down to a few square inches. Coupled with our assembly capabilities, we offer heater solutions to cover the full spectrum of needs.
Many applications require a flexible heater with non-standard sizes and specific wattage requirements. Obtaining these customized heaters almost always requires costly tooling and design services as well as a lengthy turnaround time of anywhere from 3-5 weeks to months. TurboFlex’s business model has been formulated to solve this important problem.
