Therma Lab R & D

See first hand – if microwave or RF technology can improve your production process – or if Production Engineering equipment is a better choice for your company!

Welcome to ThermaLab; a fully dedicated area on the Production Engineering manufacturing floor, filled with multiple machine types used in the microwave and RF process. These machines are working units, available to test a wide variety of materials and processes to evaluate the suitability for microwave or RF heating.

This is ideal for those companies whose process does not yet include microwave or RF technology, or companies currently using non-Production Engineering equipment. Now there is a way – at little or no cost – to test and evaluate selected products on Thermex equipment – in a realistic, manufacturing environment.
