Harper International (Buffalo, N.Y., U.S.) a company offering thermal processing solutions for advanced materials, announces the launch of its . The lab-scale rotary furnace enables those who develop and manufacture advanced materials to optimize their process parameters on a small scale to ensure capability and quality requirements are achieved prior to investment in production-scale thermal process equipment.
Full featured with short delivery times, the lab-scale rotary furnace reportedly provides clients with the opportunity to get to market faster and more efficiently. The furnace delivers temperature uniformity for batch or continuous processing of advanced materials including granular, powder or particulate aggregates at operating temperatures up to 1,200°C (2,192ºF). Harper also offers add-on options for controlled atmospheres and material handling.
In addition, Harper applies this furnace to the Ignite program at its Technology Research Center. Ignite allows clients to run feasibility demonstrations and experimental campaigns while leveraging Harper’s expertise in process development and process optimization.
