The fascia gun can be used for both hot and cold compresses. Do you know the thermoelectric cooling technology behind it?
The fascia gun is no longer the exclusive equipment of fitness enthusiasts. It is very practical and can help people loosen muscles and relax their body and mind in daily life.
The hot and cold fascia gun we are going to introduce today is a bit special - it has a thermoelectric cooler in its body, which provides it with an additional temperature regulation technology compared to ordinary fascia guns. This also means that in addition to massage, it can also provide hot and cold compresses to various parts of the body.
1. The structure and working principle of the cold and warm fascia gun
①Power drive system
The power drive system of the fascia gun includes components such as brushless motor, transmission mechanism and impact shaft. The cold and warm fascia gun usually uses a brushless DC motor (BLDC), which can reach a speed of 3000-4500 rpm, can produce a stroke of 10-16mm and an instantaneous impact force of up to 130N, ensuring the effectiveness and comfort of the massage.
②Thermoelectric cooling system
The thermoelectric cooling system is the core of the hot and cold fascia gun. It consists of a TEC, a temperature sensor, a heat dissipation component and a heat conduction structure. The TEC is installed at the massage head or the front end of the gun body. The "cold surface" contacts the human body through the heat conduction cover, and the "hot surface" is connected to the heat dissipation system. The temperature sensor is used to monitor the contact surface temperature in real time to keep the temperature stable.
③ Cooling system
The heat dissipation system is the key to ensure the stable operation of the heating and cooling fascia gun. The better the heat dissipation effect, the more stable the operation and the longer the service life of the equipment. We generally use an air-cooled heat dissipation system with a fan to dissipate the heat of the heating and cooling fascia gun, and achieve better heat dissipation effect through reasonable design and regulation.
④Power supply and control system
The power supply and control system includes lithium battery pack, power management circuit, main control MCU and user interface, etc. Most of the hot and cold fascia guns use high-capacity lithium-ion batteries (such as 18650 or 21700 cells) and are equipped with intelligent power management functions.
2. Application scenarios and populations of cold and warm fascia guns
If you are in the acute injury period after strenuous exercise, you can turn on the cold compress mode of the hot and cold fascia gun to help local blood vessels contract, reduce nerve sensitivity, and have an analgesic effect; if you are experiencing chronic pain, or the muscle strain has lasted for more than 2 days, please turn on the hot compress mode to promote local blood circulation, speed up the reduction of inflammation and muscle repair.
① Athletes/fitness enthusiasts: For this type of users, the cold and hot compress modes of the hot and cold fascia gun can help them relieve muscle soreness and prevent injuries after exercise. It is superior to ordinary fascia guns in terms of performance and reliability.
②Office workers: Keeping the same posture for a long time will cause pain in the neck, back, and shoulders. During lunch break, turn on the hot compress mode of the cold and hot fascia gun. The high temperature accelerates blood circulation and relaxes the tense muscles in less than 3 minutes.
③ Rehabilitation population: In the field of medical care and health care, the thermal therapy of the cold and warm fascia gun has attracted widespread attention. A professional and reliable cold and warm fascia gun plays a very critical auxiliary role in pain treatment. In order to meet the strict requirements of medical institutions on compliance and safety, FerroTec Pioneer Thermoelectric will provide professional, reliable and customized thermal solutions for cold and warm fascia gun manufacturers based on actual application scenarios.
3. Market analysis and future prospects of cold and warm fascia guns
In recent years, the market for hot and cold fascia guns has seen explosive growth. In 2023, the global fascia gun market sales reached $1.9 billion, and is expected to grow to $2.9 billion by 2030, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.5%.
The current cold and warm fascia gun industry has formed a multi-level competition situation. The prices of mainstream brand products range from several hundred to several thousand yuan, meeting the differentiated needs of different consumer levels. In addition, the entry of traditional home appliance companies and medical equipment manufacturers will further intensify market competition and promote TEC technology upgrades and product innovation.
With the help of thermoelectric cooling technology, the cold and warm fascia gun has achieved an intelligent upgrade from single vibration to temperature-controlled massage, meeting multi-dimensional needs such as sports relaxation, daily health care, and medical assistance. In the future, FerroTec will continue to expand the application of thermoelectric cooling technology in the field of electronic consumer products, bringing users a new experience of intelligent, innovative, and practical temperature control.
