WE SPECIALIZE IN: Measurements of microwave and Rf complex dielectric constant of small samples up to high temperatures (-35°C to 1400°C) - ceramics, polymers, glasses, metal oxides, ferrites, liquids, organics, foods, fabrics, earthenwares, minerals, biological samples, explosives, fuels Dielectric constant measurements under industrial processing conditions Measurements of Rf and microwave reflection and attenuation coefficients of small samples, to assist in detail interpretation of radar and satellite images Design of applicators for industrial Rf and microwave heating Calculations of microwave heating rates and distributions for process simulation

QUESTIONS THAT CAN BE ANSWERED BY MEASUREMENTS UNDER PROCESS CONDITIONS: Will my material heat well in a microwave field? Do the microwave absorption characteristics change during the processing? How uniform will the heating of the workpiece be at processing temperatures? Will thermal runaway be a problem in my microwave processing system? What is the best choice of frequency for heating/processing my material? Does my thermal insulation absorb/reflect microwave power at high temperatures? What type and geometry of applicator is best suited to processing my material?
