OhmIQ was founded on the idea of making a breakthrough in energy efficiency. Through our patented technology, which leverages Ohm’s law, we’ve done just that. OhmIQ technology provides a sustainable and effective heating solution that doesn’t compromise quality, cost, or comfort.
When it came to coming up with a name for our business, we wanted to stand out. Ohm’s law guides our work, and as one of the only ohmic-based companies in the world, we knew that would be a vital part of our brand identity.
OhmIQ is more than just a name. For us, it represents a lasting commitment to innovation. The heating industry faces many challenges, and we overcome those challenges through continued curiosity and learning how to best improve our technology. All elements that make us unique, like our patented algorithms, dedicated innovation, and our team of experts, contributed to creating the OhmIQ name and what it stands for today.
The Origins of Ohmic Technology
Ohmic technology works by heating a medium through direct electrical conduction. It uses the electrical resistance of whatever it's heating to produce energy, raising the internal temperature of the medium you’re heating.
OhmIQ specializes in this heating method, and our patented system contains different working parts that make Ohmic heating possible. Ohm’s law has been around for nearly two centuries, and companies around the world have used Ohmic heating technology in various applications. However, OhmIQ is the only company dedicated to perfecting just Ohmic technology—nothing else. We are truly specialized and primed to lead the industry to new heights.
Ohmic heating is used in food sterilization, water treatment, and chemical processing. It is also applied in various fields, including biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, textile processing, medical instruments, cosmetics, and more.
At OhmIQ, we are the foremost experts on Ohmic heating and believe in revolutionizing how industries utilize it. We are constantly driving innovation so that our technology is low-maintenance, preserves quality, and prioritizes accuracy. Ohmic heating is our specialty, so we can dedicate time and effort to perfecting our methods and fostering Ohmic heating at an unparalleled level.
Why "Ohm" in OhmIQ?
Ohm, commonly abbreviated to Ω, is the unit used to measure electrical resistance. It received its name from Georg Simon Ohm, born in Germany in 1789. In 1825, Ohm published his very first paper regarding his examinations of electromagnetic force; it was poorly received at the time. It wasn't until 1827 that he would publish a book that would detail his total theory of electricity.
Throughout his experiments, Ohm defined the fundamental relationship between voltage, current, and resistance. He concluded that the amount of current that flows through a material is proportional to its voltage divided by its resistance, giving us the equation of Ohm’s law.
Just like Ohm, OhmIQ believes in precision, efficiency, and the drive to push boundaries in a specialized field. Ohm’s law is at the core of our technology and how we operate, and the innovation of this centuries-old science is the foundation of our philosophy.
The IQ Factor
The IQ in OhmIQ doesn’t just stand for intelligence. It embodies our expertise and innovative thinking that we apply to everything we do. In our highly specialized industry, we understand just how valuable smart and modern solutions are. Our team comprises masters of their craft who are continuously curious about their work, which allows us to tackle specific obstacles in any niche.
Our deep understanding of Ohmic heating technology allows us to solve the unique challenges that our clients face, no matter the industry. We know that the solutions needed for a cosmetics facility differ vastly from those needed for environmental remediation. As we develop, we are always finding new ways to pioneer our technology, like miniaturization of our technology, Internet of Things (IoT) integration, and breaking into new industries.
Why OhmIQ is the Only Truly Ohmic-Based Company
Being specialists in our field gives us the focus to gain deep knowledge of Ohmic heating. Other companies may be generalists in Ohmic heating, but we are proficient experts. Companies selling Ohmic heating solutions may be tunnel-visioned in one industry, or their products may be bulky and hard to maintain. We’re proud to say that these are areas where we excel and will continue to raise the bar.
“We want to educate people about what our technology can do and get people excited that the only place they’ll shop for this product is OhmIQ with a ‘q,’” said Neil Gannon, OhmIQ’s Chief Marketing Officer. “We are seeking to build awareness from both sides. Right now, students and engineers might have heard of Ohm’s law in college or through their training, but in the future, we want them to think of our company simultaneously. We strive to be the foremost real-world example of Ohmic technology.”
Our results reflect our dedication to providing the highest quality of heating. We ensure unparalleled temperature control of any medium to help propel your output volume. OhmIQ technology is also light on energy usage, which saves you money. And if you’re in the food and beverage industry, our technology preserves the quality and flavor of water, along with maintaining essential minerals.
OhmIQ is more than just our brand name; it encapsulates the meaning of our mission. By employing Ohm’s law in our technology, we can take a reliable science and push its boundaries to create something revolutionary.
We’re devoted to excellence in Ohmic technology and will continue to evolve our technology to fit niche industries and disparities. Our goal is to transform the energy landscape by means of speed, energy, and efficiency, and we hope to inspire businesses to achieve greater productivity with a sustainable heating system of undeniable excellence.
We strongly encourage anyone interested in working with OhmIQ to reach out. Whether you would like to see our technology in your facility or want to work on our amazing team, we would love to hear from you and talk about what OhmIQ could do for you.
