Arrow MPS Case Study: Titan Infrared Heater Solution for Factory Workshop

Arrow MPS is a precision milling, turning and welding jobbing shop based in Victoria, specialising in mechanical components ranging from simple one-off parts to complex assemblies.

This factory equipped with CNC machines, lathes and heavy-duty equipment, is a busy environment where staff often operate at fixed workstations for long hours. During the colder months, Arrow MPS has always faced the challenge of maintaining warmth across its large production areas. With concrete floors, high ceilings, and constant draughts from roller doors, traditional factory heating systems like fan heaters and gas units struggled to provide consistent comfort. For both productivity and worker wellbeing, the company sought a heating solution that could deliver safe, reliable, and efficient warmth directly to operators without wasting energy on heating the entire air volume of the facility.

We recommended Titan short-wave infrared heaters, designed specifically for demanding industrial environments. Unlike traditional convection systems, Titan heaters deliver instant radiant heat directly to people and objects, creating localised comfort zones without wasting energy heating the entire air volume.

Multiple Titan units were installed above key CNC machines and workstations, providing immediate warmth even in draughty conditions. Since installation, staff comfort and productivity have improved significantly, with operators reporting consistent warmth throughout the workday.

Since the installation, operators at lathes, CNC machines, and fabrication benches no longer have to contend with uncomfortably cold mornings or draughty conditions. The Titan infrared heaters, mounted directly above key workstations, deliver consistent and targeted warmth that allows staff to stay productive and focused on their tasks.

The feedback from the team has been positive. As the manager has noted: “The guys are happy, my biggest problem is getting them to turn them off when it warms up!” This simple comment highlights not only the comfort provided by the Titan heaters but also their effectiveness in creating a productive and welcoming work environment.
