They give you a generic heat profile that&rsquo;s &ldquo;fine&rdquo; for most things, but not for the high-stakes stuff. When you&rsquo;re messing around with new glass compositions, the margin for error is tiny. A few degrees of difference across the surface is often the only thing standing between a perfect cure and a shattered substrate. That&rsquo;s why we obsess over the geometry of the aluminum reflector. It&rsquo;s all about controlling exactly where that infrared energy lands.</p>
