SIMCAL annealing simulator
EBNER has developed an extremely
flexible, gas-tight annealing simulator, the HICON/H2® SIMCAL. EBNER offers SIMCAL simulators as complete facilities or as “Simulation as a service”.

Gautschi Hybrid Vario Mold for ingots
Rolling ingots are the starting material used to manufacture aluminum sheet, and are produced in a continuous vertical casting process (VDC). The heart of any vertical continuous casting unit is the mold, which has a significant impact on the quality of an ingot and thus on the end product.

Sustainable heat treatment
Burner technologies play a central role in industrial heat treatment – whether in terms of efficiency, emissions or an ability to be adapted to alternative fuels. For decades, EBNER has been developing innovative burner solutions for heat treatment furnaces, constantly raising the bar for the rest of the industry.
