[Prior Art and Problems to be Solved by the Invention] Generally, the resistance value of an organic PTC heater is greatly influenced by the core preheating temperature and the resistor extrusion temperature when extruding the resistor. Although the resistance value of the resistor is one of the important characteristics of the heater, there is no way to check the resistance value during operation. The only way to do this is to take a sample when cutting, measure the resistance value, and feed this back, which results in a large time lag and extremely low yield.
