Advanced Process Control
Versatile Usage
Equipped with an advanced temperature management system to ensure precise control of the heating process in the temperature range from 100-2500°C.
Advanced Cooling and Loading Solutions
Vibration Isolation and Sealing
Innovative Viewport
Intuitive HMI and GUI
Experience seamless process control with our advanced user interface, featuring a physical panel and a graphical HMI accessible via Ethernet. Each system connects to your local network with a unique IP address, allowing for centralized monitoring and control from a single operator station—whether local or remote.
Our hardwired interface ensures critical safety signals, such as emergency stop status and low cooling water supply, are communicated directly to your facility. With customizable authorization levels, you can easily restrict access to sensitive functions like recipe modifications.
Edit recipes offline or through the HMI, and effortlessly export/import them between machines. Plus, enjoy real-time visualization of continuously logged process parameters with intuitive graphs. Elevate your operational efficiency and security with our cutting-edge HMI solutions.

Hassle-Free Maintenance
The electrical cabinet and process pump are mounted on horizontal sliders, providing easy access for servicing. All vacuum, cooling, gas, and pneumatic components are conveniently located at the front of the system for quick inspections and repairs. Additionally, the loading lift is optimized for effortless replacement of the quartz tube and sealings, ensuring minimal downtime and maximum efficiency.
Loading and unloading, as well as all regular service tasks, can be performed comfortably from the front side of the machine.
All interfaces, such as water, electricity, pneumatic, and
gas supply, are located on top for easy installation.
