Mediated by our new distributor in China, the University of Shanghai ordered the first model of the updated and optimized 2015/2016 generation of our Optical Floating Zone Furnace HKZ.

One main ideas of the new design is the modular set-up concept. A reasonably priced basic model can be upgraded in any direction just by adding or exchanging a few components (i.e. handling up to 300 bar gas pressures, in-situ temperature measuring and many more). In this way, the HKZ furnace becomes an affordable and very versatile, future-proof device.
