| min. volume flow rate | 380 Nm3/h |
| max. volume flow rate | 950 Nm3/h |
| Combustion temperature | 950°C |
Product carriers / Sagger / Trays
Our ovens can be equipped with the most different product carriers / saggers / trays. Shape, size and materials (e.g. aluminium oxide, silicium carbide, stainless steel, graphite) are individually adapted to the process.
