Driving hood furnace system 1600 °C
Driving hood furnace system for firing SiC crucibles up to T max. 1600 °C.
Useable space: 2800 x 8300 x 2500 mm (w x d x h).
The heated furnace hood is moved alternately between two positions. Electrical drive. Space for an additional furnace system is already prepared.

Chamber furnace 1600 °C
Gas-fired chamber furnaces for sintering pigments with nine burners. Short cycle times due to automatically controlled cooling fan.

Bogie-hearth furnace 1600 °C
Bogie-hearth furnace for sintering pigments in capsules, with transverse shunting device. The bogie hearths are rail-bound and are moved into the parking rails by electrical drives.

Gas-fired bogie-hearth furnace with transverse shunting device for sintering grinding discs. While one bogie is in the furnace, two additional bogies can be loaded.

All bogie hearths are rail-bound and can be pushed into the parking rails via the transverse shunting device either manually or by an electric drive.

Hood furnace 1600 °C
This gas-fired furnace system is designed as a hood furnace and is used for sintering insulators.
