englishGlasstec Premiere: MoSi2 Heating Elements Made in Germany
M.E.SCHUPP will showcase for the first time electric heating elements from MoSi2 for melting furnaces up to 1,850° from its own production at the internationally leading trade show for the glass industry Glasstec, (Düsseldorf, October 21 – 25, 2008) in hall 13, booth D37. The heating elements, available under the trade name Molycom®-Ultra, have already been manufactured in Aachen since early this year. Thus
M.E.SCHUPP® is the only manufacturer of MoSi2 heating elements in Germany and the second one in Europe. In Düsseldorf, the worldwide acting provider of high-temperature components introduces the heating elements „Made in Germany“ for electrically operated melting furnaces and tanks for laboratory and industrial applications for the first time to a larger public. On this occasion MolyCom® applications for the glass industry will be showcased in practice. This also includes integrated packet solutions such as M.E.SCHUPP®-MolyTec heating modules consisting of MolyCom® heating elements and AL2O3 insulation boards or complete furnace modules manufactured by M.E.SCHUPP® upon customer’s order.
Further to the premiere product M.E.SCHUPP® presents in Düsseldorf the entire product portfolio for assembly and operation of glass melting facilities. At the booth, visitors will find components and materials from the Glasstec product ranges fire proof materials, feeder technology, glass melting furnace technology, electrically heated systems and insulating material.
With its production site in Aachen M.E.Schupp® offers the European glass industry a second source for MoSi2 heating elements. As „Made-in-Germany“ products they stand for continuous high quality, measured in electric heating elements related to criteria such as constant electric resistance, homogenous maximum temperature, high thermo shock resistance and a long life cycle. The production compliant with established industrial standards allows for the side by side use of new and old elements side by side and the simultaneous operation of Molycom®-Ultra and heating modules from other vendors.
Molycom®-Ultra is manufactured in all diameters from 3/6 mm to 12/24 mm up to a length of 2 meters. The hot bending technology, worldwide only mastered by a few manufacturers, allows for realization of complex heating element geometries upon customer request.
