About us

Vacuum drying from Aachen, since 1990

Our headquarters is in Aachen. Thanks to its technical university, the city is rightly regarded as an important technology region.

Since our re-founding in 1990, our focus has been on vacuum drying. We develop and manufacture vacuum drying cabinets and vacuum drying chambers, as cost-effective standard versions or to our customers' specifications.

Expertise

Vacuum technology for demanding tasks

Our systems result from the interplay of several disciplines. The applications show which tasks we solve with them.

This is how a vacuum drying cabinet works: the chamber is heated and evacuated, the moisture evaporates at low temperature and is extracted. Click to play again.
