Gentle drying under vacuum
Among the thermal processes, vacuum drying has proved particularly successful in many industries. The aim of this process is to gently dry a high-quality product mixed with water or solvent without changing the product properties.
When drying under vacuum, the total pressure in the drying oven is lowered so that water or solvents change from the liquid to the vapor phase even at low temperatures.
The drying process is optimized through targeted heat supply and pressure control.
Basically, a vacuum drying system consists of a drying oven with a heating system and a vacuum pumping station tailored to the specific drying process with a corresponding control system.

- Melting
- Sublimation
