It’s gut-wrenching. It usually happens because the temperature changes too fast, creating a &ldquo;shock&rdquo; that the glass just can&rsquo;t handle. To fix this, we use shortwave IR lamps. They give us a way to move heat instantly and change the power on a dime.</p> <h2 id="why-speed-matters">Why Speed Matters</h2> <p>Here&rsquo;s the thing: you can&rsquo;t just blast your jewelry with heat and hope for the best. You need a heater that actually listens to you. Shortwave IR lamps are great because they don&rsquo;t hold onto heat. When your controller tells the voltage to drop, the heat drops<strong>right now</strong>. This lets us &ldquo;ramp&rdquo; the temperature. We hit the glass with a quick burst to get it to that sweet spot for annealing, then dial it back in milliseconds to keep it steady. If you tried this with old-school resistive heaters, they&rsquo;d be too slow to react. By the time the heater cooled down, your piece would <a href="https://goldisgood.com">probably</a> be in a million pieces.</p>
