Sectors We Work With

As experts in thermodynamics and power electronics, LPC Components design and manufacture products for a range of diverse industries. Whether we’re supplying power resistors and rheostats for the London Underground or developing a sophisticated process oven for INEOS, our work is always of the highest quality. Here are some of the sectors that we operate in:

• Rail

  We supply power resistors, heating elements and cast components for all types of electric locomotives, EMUs and metro cars. Typical applications include dynamic braking and traction control.

• Plastics & Process

  We design and manufacture everything from simple heater bands and cartridge heaters up to complex process ovens. Typical applications would include heaters for injection moulding and extrusion.

• Medical

  We manufacture heating elements for use in everything from dentistry to cryogenic applications. Typical products would include cartridge heaters and thermocouples.

• Food & Beverages

  Our heating elements are utilised by numerous industrial kitchens, bakeries and breweries. This could include infrared heaters for a bread oven or an immersion heater for a distillery.

• Heating & Air Conditioning

  Many power resistors and heating elements are utilised in the HVAC sector. These range from tubular heating elements and wire wound power resistors to our range of specially developed anti-condensation heaters.

• Automotive

  Our products enable customers to manufacture everything from engine blocks to dashboards. We support the automotive industry all along the supply chain including numerous Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers.

• Petrochemical

  Typical requirements include immersion heaters, defrost heaters, tubular heaters and thermocouples. We also work with a number of customers to design bespoke process ovens for their R&D projects.

• Shipping & Marine

  Our power resistors and rheostats are used in military applications around the world including in the control panels for nuclear submarines.

• Nuclear

  The heating elements that we design and manufacture are used by some of the most advanced engineering companies in the world and in some of the most challenging environments, including the Nuclear Sector. Quality and safety standards are understandably, extremely stringent.
