Specifications

Thanks to fast warm-up times, excellent temperature stability and the fact that no chemicals or consumables are required, these systems are ideal for cleaning tooling, shaping medical components, calibrating sensors and heating reactors.
 

Typical applications

  1. Cleaning of parts, tooling and hardware

Effortlessly removes paint, oil, rubber, adhesive residue and polymers from extrusion tooling and industrial components.

       2. Heat treatment of metals and materials

Perfect for tempering and shaping Nitinol medical equipment.

       3. Calibration, testing and reactor heating

Suitable for calibrating temperature sensors and heating coils, reactor vessels and systems for endothermic or exothermic reactions.

 

How the technology works

Our systems use technology that has proven its reliability for decades. The tank is filled with alumina media, where a controlled flow of compressed air brings the media into a fluidized (“bubbling”) state.

This ensures fast and extremely even heat transfer, comparable to a liquid, but at much higher temperatures. Immersed parts heat up quickly and emerge clean, dry and completely residue-free — a safe and reliable alternative to molten salt baths.

Fluidized Sand Bath vs. Fluidized Aluminium Oxide Bath

The term “fluidized sand bath” is commonly used in industry to describe high-temperature fluidized bath systems.
From a technical perspective, however, modern industrial fluidized baths do not use sand. Instead, they operate with aluminium oxide media, which offers significantly better thermal stability, durability and process control.

Aluminium oxide provides:

  1. stable particle size at high temperatures
  2. uniform and repeatable heat transfer
  3. minimal dust formation
  4. long service life without media degradation

Using sand as a medium would lead to inconsistent thermal behavior and rapid material breakdown, which is why professional fluidized bath systems for thermal cleaning, heat treatment and medical device processing rely on aluminium oxide rather than sand.

For this reason, while the expression fluidized sand bath is often used as a generic description, aluminium oxide fluidized baths are the technically correct and industrially accepted solution.
