has been tested and optimized in NTECHs fully operative Industrial
Development Center (IDC). As the process is modular, the plant size can
be adjusted to the market needs in a timely way. This means an enhanced
flexibility and an immediate economy of scale.
Chemical

It should reach temperatures up to 280 °C and pressures
up to 50 bar for most of the applications. The size is a function
of the objects to be produced. |
| Furnace
The furnace design depends on the size and
shape of the final objects to be realized. Based on own experience
