Explore the cutting-edge range of additive manufacturing furnaces at Carbolite Gero, including advanced systems for both debinding and sintering. Carbolite Gero provides the innovative solutions you need to elevate your additive manufacturing to the next level.
Additive methods can be divided into two categories. Direct methods, such as SLM and EBM, are very well known and have reached a broad market acceptance in the industrial environment.
However, indirect methods have become more important in recent years. With these methods a green part is produced in the first process step, which is debinded and sintered in the second step.
Direct AM Methods | Indirect AM Methods | Method | L-PBF, EBM One-step process Direct production of components through welding processes |
BJ, CMF, M-FDM
Two-step process In the first step: Production of green parts
In the second step: Debinding and sintering of the green parts |

In direct additive processes high thermal stress is often generated by high heat input during the printing process. CARBOLITE GERO provides customers with two suitable furnaces to achieve the best possible component properties.
The GPCMA modified atmosphere chamber furnaces are equipped with a metallic retort to provide a heated volume with a controlled atmosphere. They are floorstanding models with a smooth action hinged door arrangement.
Available with a range of maximum temperature from 1000 °C to 1150 °C depending on the selected retort material. Retort working volumes range from 37 to 245 litres.
Oxygen levels can be reduced to 30 ppm depending on the application. Perfect for stress relieving additive manufactured components particularly those produced via DMLS. This range of furnaces can be optionally specified for compliance to AMS2750F Nadcap class 1 for aerospace applications.

The high temperature furnace range HTK of Carbolite Gero consists of several metallic heated furnaces made of molybdenum and tungsten.
These furnaces can be operated up to 2200 °C with hydrogen, nitrogen and argon, or even in vacuum, depending on the customer's requirements. The concentration of the gases is freely adjustable.
The HTK 8 and HTK 25 chamber furnaces are widely used for indirect Additive Manufacturing applications. The usable space, precise temperature control and uniformity are beneficial characteristics for indirect Additive Manufacturing processes.
