The EBO debinding furnace is specially engineered to handle the stringent requirements that come with catalytic debinding. The EBO is an ideal solution for binder removal from mouldings made from BASF Catamold® Feedstock. These mouldings are commonly known as green parts. The debinding furnace reaches a maximum temperature of 150°C and is available in two sizes: 120 litres (rectangular usable space 400 mm x 400 mm x 700 mm) and 250 litre (rectangular usable space 500 mm x 500 mm x 1000 mm).

The PDS type furnaces are available with a usable volume of 25, 120 and 250 l. With the special design of the PDS type furnaces, it is possible to do both, debinding and sintering in one furnace. For debinding, a special gas guiding configuration and molybdenum retort are utilized to protect the heating elements from all gaseous by-products. The heating elements and radiation shields are also constructed of molybdenum. The system is surrounded by a double walled, water cooled vessel. To prevent condensation of the byproducts in the gas outlet system, the tubes leading to the afterburner are heated. Debinding is normally performed at a slight overpressure, and upon request, the furnace can be configured for debinding under partial pressure. For partial pressure operation, a special oil pump is integrated into the furnace to pump the gaseous by-products out of the furnace and into the afterburner.
