A heating unit for an aerosol generating device, comprising:
- a heater defining a heating chamber configured to receive an aerosol generating substrate, wherein the heater is configured to be in direct contact with the aerosol generating substrate when the aerosol generating substrate is received in the heating chamber;
- and
- a frame configured to only partially enclose the heater, wherein the frame is thermally moulded to the heater, such that the frame is sealed to the heater.
A method of forming a heating unit for an aerosol generating device, comprising:
- heating a frame material;
- moulding the frame material to a heater, the heater defining a heating chamber configured to receive an aerosol generating substrate, to only partially enclose the heater, wherein the heater is configured to be in direct contact with the aerosol generating substrate when the aerosol generating substrate is received in the heating chamber;
- and
- cooling the frame material to form a seal with the heater.
