This heating device () includes: a heater () for heating an object () to be heated; a temperature detection unit () for detecting a temperature of the object () to be heated; and a temperature regulator () which controls the heater () so as to make the temperature of the object () to be heated equal to the target temperature. The temperature detection unit () comprises temperature sensors (). An identification unit () identifies, from temperature data detected by the temperature sensors () and manipulation quantity data corresponding to electric power applied to the heater (), a heat transfer function between the heater () and the temperature sensors (), and a heat transfer function between the respective temperature sensors (). A determination unit () detects a change of the transfer functions, and determines an abnormality in the heater () or the temperature sensors ().

Heating device

A technique for accurately detecting a temperature of a sealing surface which is not affected by sealing conditions or the like is provided. A seal bar () is a rod-shaped seal bar having a sealing surface () and includes a heater () and a temperature sensor (). The heater () is provided in a main body of the seal bar () and extends in an extending direction (D) of the main body (). The temperature sensor () is provided at a position between the sealing surface () and the heater () in the main body () of the seal bar () and is inserted into the main body () of the seal bar () from an end surface (upper end surface () or the like) which intersects a long side of the sealing surface ().

Seal bar and heat sealing apparatus

A customer submits a service application by accessing the home page of a service provider through a personal computer, and transmits the data including the operation amount and the control amount of a temperature controllerto a serverof the service provider. The serveraccumulates the received data, and in accordance with the contents of the received service application, processes the accumulated data and provides the services of calculating the control parameter for the temperature controller, producing a model of the object of control and making a diagnosis by checking for a temperature control fault.
