The invention discloses a manufacturing process of a 
metal surface thick-film heater. The manufacturing process comprises the following steps of 1, selecting a 
metal surface thick-film heater base material; 2, treating a 
metal surface; 3, printing and 
sintering an insulating layer 2; 4, printing and 
sintering a conductive layer; 5, printing and 
sintering a resistance layer 4; 6, printing and sintering a protective layer; 7, 
cutting the heater; and 8, performing 
laser code spraying. According to the invention, a 
metal substrate is coated with the insulating layer; the insulating layer is coatedwith the conductive layer; the conductive layer is coated with the resistance layer to serve as a heating medium, and finally, the resistance layer is coated with the protective layer to prevent accidental collision and the 
scratching of film 
layers of the thick-film heater such that all the film 
layers are closely fused into a whole, all the 
layers are closely fused into a whole, and the problems of low efficiency, high 
power consumption, short service life, high cost and the like of the thick-film heater are solved.
