Customized quality and innovation

The perfect balance: Our newly developed roller kiln concepts ensure top product quality at minimum maintenance and personnel expenses.

Roller kiln: Its state-of-the-art firing unit in modular design is suitable for many application areas and is firing in different designs.

• Dishes and porcelain
• Technical ceramics
• Roofing tiles and accessories
• Bricks and split tiles
• Sanitary ware
• Battery powders (Li-Ion batteries) in kiln type eRO
• Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC) and Solid Oxide Electrolyser Cells (SOEC)
• Other special applications

Technical specifications at a glance:

• Kiln length: up to 150 m
• Setting width: up to 3 m
• Roller levels: 1 to 3
• Firing temperature: 800 to 1,650 °C
• Firing cycles: 20 min to up to 48 h, depending on the requirements
• Clocked or modulated burners
• Low power consumption due to fan frequency control
• Heating: direct / indirect gas heating, different gas types, electrical heating
• Kiln insulation: Full fibre, insulating refractory brick or composite/sandwich construction
• ProVis process visualisation with excellent control and analytics tools
• Product tracing system for integration in a superior PPS system
• Optionally with a heat exchange system (i.e. air / water)

The reliable roller drive system featuring helical gearing is practically maintenance-free. High temperature constancy across the setting cross-section inside the various kiln sections and the significant reduction of the specific energy consumption and the transit time are further benefits of this kiln plant.

The energy-efficient EnerViT firing system ensures energy savings of up to 20 % in continuous kilns for oxidizing firing. A fully automated burner monitoring system optimizes heating and cooling processes at good flame stability: For permanent industrial operation, EnerViT provides many benefits at fair terms. With the newly developped EnerViT plus energy savings of up to 40 % can be achieved.

The following applies to the tunnel kiln: It is a flexible production unit with excellent heat distribution at a high setting width. It provides excellent energy consumption values due to its insulating refractory brick or fibre lining.

The tunnel kiln is equipped with state-of-the-art kiln control concepts and kiln car tracking systems. Among other things, it fires the following:

• Sanitary ware
• Dishes and porcelain
• Roofing tiles and accessories
• Bricks and split tiles
• Cordierite ceramic/stoneware pipes
• Technical ceramics
• Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC) and Solid Oxide Electrolyser Cells (SOEC)
• Other special applications
