Our Expertise
At DR-FISCHER, we manufacture custom metal parts and assemblies over a maximum surface area of 3 x 1.5 meters. Our expertise focuses particularly on the design of specific reflectors: we master diffuse reflection materials, such as hammered aluminum, as well as specular reflection materials like high-gloss sheet metal, which are essential for optimizing thermal and light reflection. To meet the requirements of Infrared (IR) and UV technologies, we also work with specific stainless steels and technical ceramics.
Our design office brings a strategic dimension to every project. Beyond simple advice on the best material to use, our engineers optimize the shape of your components using simulation and precision measurement tools. From prototype production to mass production, we provide high-quality products ensuring maximum performance.

The different materials and their specifications
The choice of materials is a determining factor in the success of a precision sheet metal project. Dr. Fischer’s workshop primarily works with stainless steel and aluminum.
Stainless Steel: Durability and Hygiene
Stainless steel is preferred for its exceptional corrosion resistance and its ability to withstand high temperatures without major deformation. In the infrared field, it is often used for the load-bearing structure of modules and for enclosures that must withstand harsh industrial environments. For UV disinfection applications in the medical sector, stainless steel is the material of choice due to its hygienic properties and its compatibility with rigorous cleaning processes.Aluminum: Lightness and Thermal Conductivity
Aluminum is used for the manufacturing of reflectors and LED brackets. Its significant lightness facilitates system installation, while its superior thermal conductivity allows for efficient dissipation of residual heat ; a critical point for maintaining the lifespan of LED components and high-pressure UV modules.
Optimized reflectors according to your needs
The efficiency of a heating or lighting system largely depends on the quality of the reflection. Dr. Fischer’s sheet metal workshop has specialized in working with specific finishes to optimize this parameter.
High-Gloss Sheet Metal: Maximum Focusing
“High-gloss” sheet metal is used to create high-specularity reflectors. This material makes it possible to direct the light or thermal beam with great precision toward a narrow target area. It is the ideal finish for fast-drying or short-wave IR (IR-A) focusing applications, where the goal is to maximize power density at the point of impact.Hammered Sheet Metal: Diffusion and Uniformity
Conversely, hammered sheet metal features a faceted surface that breaks up direct beams to achieve diffuse and uniform radiation. This specific characteristic is highly sought after for large-surface heating or well-being applications, such as infrared saunas using VITAE technology, where thermal comfort depends on the absence of “hot spots”.
Typical applications of systems with metal parts :
Infrared (IR) Projects: Infrared is used for a multitude of industrial processes: heating, drying, thermoforming, cooking, or adhesive activation. Sheet metal working plays a key role here by creating heating modules capable of supporting quartz emitters operating at filament temperatures up to 3000 K.
Ultraviolet (UV) Projects: UV modules are used for ink polymerization, varnish drying, or air and surface disinfection. The workshop manufactures complete UV modules that often integrate complex cooling systems to manage the heat generated by medium-pressure lamps.
LED Solutions and Hybrid Systems: With the rise of LED technology, sheet metal requirements have evolved toward thinner structures with enhanced thermal management. Dr. Fischer develops specific luminaires and LED-UV modules where the precision of the metal assembly directly determines the photonic performance. Hybrid solutions, combining infrared and LEDs for sophisticated drying processes for instance, benefit from the workshop’s ability to integrate mixed technologies into a single, compact metal chassis.
