Our high-precision manufacturing is carried out by teams of specialists, who fulfill the highest quality criteria even as they meet the strictest deadlines.

EBNER sets new standards
Until now, conventional methods of measuring temperatures during a heat treatment process have been associated with extended interruptions in production and increased error frequencies. With the new and innovative temperature measurement system from EBNER, these problems belong to the past.

Innovation meets Industry
Metals processing industries are facing a steadilyrising demand for increased quality, efficiency and sustainability. This is especially true in the steel and copper base metals industries, where powerful descaling processes that make efficient use of resources are crucial for ensuring consistent product qualities and economical operation. To address this need, WRUtec employs a simple yet effective principle: pulsed water jets.

Premium technology as a service
Since the beginning of this year, EBNER has been placing additional emphasis on a strategically vital business sector: the modernization and service of, as well as the supply of components for, heat treatment facilities that were not manufactured by EBNER itself.

A successful modernization
One recent example of a successful modernization has been provided by EBNER Industrieofenbau, as it extensively revamped a vertical bright annealing line (line BA2) at ARINOX SpA – a leading manufacturer of precision stainless steel strip.
