Additive Manufacturing
Additive manufacturing allows for the direct conversion of design construction files into fully functional objects. With
3D-printing objects, from metals, plastics, ceramics, glass, sand or other materials are built-up in layers until they
have reached their final shape.
Depending on the material, the layers are interconnected by means of a binder system or by laser technology.
Many methods of additive manufacturing require subsequent heat treatment of the manufactured components. The
requirements for the furnaces for heat treatment depend on the component material, the working temperature, the
Retort furnace NR 150/11 for annealing of atmosphere in the furnace and, of course, the additive production process.
metal parts of 3D-printing
Apart from the choice of the right model and process parameters the previous processes before the heat treatment
also have an influence on the overall result. One important criteria for a good surface quality is that the components
are cleaned properly before the heat treatment.
This is particularly important for the processes that are carried out under vacuum or in furnaces that have a high
requirement for a low residual oxygen content. Minor leaks or contamination can lead to insufficient results. For this
reason, regular cleaning and maintenance of the furnace is important.

Binder-Free Systems
In binder-free additive manufacturing, in most cases, the components are produced with the powder-based
laser melting process on a printing platform. In the meantime, other manufacturing processes have also become
established on the market, which likewise require a corresponding heat treatment after the production process.
The tables below show typical materials and construction platform sizes of laser-based systems that are available on
the market with suggestions with respect to furnace sizes, required temperature and atmosphere in the furnace.
Aluminum Components
Generally, aluminum is heat treated in air at temperatures between 150 °C and 450 °C. Printed aluminum part, heat treated in
model N 250/85 HA (Manufacturer CETIM
CERTEC on SUPCHAD platform)
Due to the very good temperature uniformity, forced convection chamber furnaces are suitable for processes such
as tempering, aging, stress-reliefing or preheating.
By using a protective gas box with the corresponding process gas supply, a standard furnace can be upgraded to a
protective gas furnace. Depending on the type of process gas, the preflushing rate, the process flushing rate, and
the condition of the box, it is possible to achieve residual oxygen concentrations of up to 100 ppm.
The forced convection chamber furnaces with protective gas boxes described below have a working temperature
range between 150 °C and 850 °C. If the protective gas boxes are removed from the furnace, aluminum or steel
components can also be heat treated in air.
In these cases, hot-wall retort furnaces with a maximum temperature of 900 °C or 1100 °C are
used. These gas tight retort furnaces are ideal for heat treatment processes that require a defined
protective or reaction gas atmosphere. The compact models can also be designed for heat
treatment under vacuum up to 600 °C. The risk of oxidation on the component is considerably
reduced with these furnaces.

Systems with Binder
In 3D printing, organic binders, which evaporate during heat treatment, are used to build-up the
part. The printed parts can be made of ceramic, metal, glass or sand. Depending on the evaporation
volume, furnaces with graduated safety systems for debinding and sintering are used.
On pages 10 and 11 the different concepts are presented in a decision matrix and explained on the
following pages.
The furnaces are available with different max. furnace chamber temperatures
2
Depending on the material and the binder system, debinding is carried out either in a non-
flammable protective gas (IDB), under hydrogen (H2), or catalytically in a mixture of nitric acid and
nitrogen. Adapted safety systems are used to ensure the safety of these processes.

The table contains examples of furnaces which can be equipped with suitable safety technology. safety system for debinding and sintering in air
Hot-wall retort furnaces are used as debinding furnaces and cold-wall retort furnaces as sintering
furnaces. Under certain circumstances, depending on the application, it is possible to use the same
furnace for both processes.

Safety Concepts for Processes which Generate a Combustible Atmosphere
During debinding e.g. from technical ceramics, hydrocarbons are released, which might generate an ignitable
mixture depending on their concentration in the furnace chamber. Nabertherm offers tailor-made passive and active
safety packages depending on the process and the amount of binder, which enable safe operation of the furnace.
I. Debinding in Air
DB10 Debinding Package for Air Circulation Furnaces (Convection Heating) up to 450 °C
The DB10 debinding package is the basic option for safe debinding in air circulation furnaces up to 450 °C. The
furnace is equipped with an exhaust gas fan providing for a defined volume of air which is extracted from the
furnace, thus allowing the volume of fresh air required for the debinding process to enter the furnace. The furnace is
operated with negative pressure, which prevents an undefined emission of vaporization products.
12
II. Safety Concept EN 1539 (NFPA 86) to Dry Liquid Solvents in Ovens
The safety technology of furnaces and dryers used for processes in which solvents or other flammable substances
are released and vaporized relatively quickly is regulated throughout Europe in EN 1539 (or NFPA 86 in the USA)
Typical applications are drying of mold varnish, surface coatings, and impregnating resins. Users include
the chemical industry as well as many other areas, such as the automotive, electric, plastic processing and Protective gas
metalworking industries.
The safety concept relates to preventing the formation of explosive mixtures through continuous air exchange in the
entire vapor space. Air
IDB Safety Concept for Debinding in Protective Gas Boxes under Non-Flammable Protective Gases with
Low Residual Oxygen
Protective
The IDB safety concept with an inert atmosphere in protective gas boxes is ideal for debinding processes under gas
protective gas where a small amount of residual oxygen for the materials is permitted. The furnace technology in
combination with a protective gas box made from heat-resistant stainless steel has a very good price performance
ratio.
A monitored inert gas pre-flushing and conservation flushing during the process ensure that a residual oxygen
concentration of 3 % is not exceeded in the protective gas box. The customer must check this limit value with
regular measurements.
IDB Safety Concept in Retort Furnaces for Debinding under Non-Flammable Protective Gases or for
Pyrolysis Processes
The retort furnaces in the NR(A) and SR(A) series are ideal for debinding under non-flammable protective gases or
for pyrolysis processes. With the IDB option, the furnace chamber is flushed with protective gases. Exhaust gases Protective

are incinerated in an exhaust gas torch. The flushing and the torch function are monitored to ensure safe operation. H2

These gas tight retort furnaces are equipped with direct or indirect
heating depending on temperature. They are perfectly suited for
various heat treatment processes requiring a defined protective
or a reaction gas atmosphere. These compact models can also be
laid out for heat treatment under vacuum up to 600 °C. The furnace
chamber consists of a gas tight retort with water cooling around the
door to protect the special sealing. With the corresponding safety
technology, retort furnaces are also suitable for applications under
reaction gases, such as hydrogen or, in combination with the IDB
package, for inert debinding or for pyrolysis processes.

Protective Gas Boxes for Models LH 15/.. - LH 216/..
Due to the cubic interior of the LH chamber furnaces and the corresponding protective gas boxes, these furnaces
are ideally suited for higher batches. Gassing boxes for the LH models have a standard charge thermocuple, which
can be used, for example, for charge control. The protective gas inlet and outlet is routed through the furnace
collar in the case of a furnace with a swivel door on the left and through the lower furnace collar in the lift-door
configuration.
These boxes have a lid for charging from above, protective gas inlet and outlet.

Protective Gas Boxes with Evacuation Lid for Models LH 15/.. - LH 216/..
Design as the described protective gas boxes, but with an additional evacuation lid. In order to reduce the residual
oxygen in the box, protective gas boxes with evacuation lids can be used. These boxes have a lid for top loading, a
protective gas inlet and outlet, and an evacuation cover with rubber gasket. The gas piping and the handling in the
warm state corresponds to the gassing boxes on page 32. In addition, a connection for a vacuum pump via three-
way ball valve is provided.
In combination with a vacuum pump, the oxygen is evacuated from the box in cold state and afterwards flushed with
protective gas. Repeating the process once or several times will significantly improve the results. After this process,
the evacuation cover is removed and the actual heat treatment process is started under protective gas. After the
heat treatment, the box is pulled out of the furnace and can be cooled in air or opened for batch removal.

Protective Gas Boxes for Models N 7/H - N 641/13
The annealing boxes for heat treatment under protective gas are equipped with a protective gas intlet and outlet. A
box with protective gas is advisable for larger workpieces requiring defined heat treating. We would be pleased to
carry out Trials at our technical center can be carried out on request. Up to furnace model N 61/H with downward
door opening the gas ductway is laid through the upper section of the door collar, for larger furnaces
with upward door opening the supply line is laid through the lower furnace collar.
The box is pressurized with non flammable protective and reactive gases such as argon, nitrogen or
forming gas via the protective gas tube. There are manual and automatic systems available for protective
gas. See pages 52 - 53. for more information about protective gases which can be used as well as manual
and automatic protective gas systems.
After charging the box it is closed and preflushed outside the furnace. Afterwards the box is placed in the preheated Box with protective gas connection
furnace. The quantity of gas can be reduced to the process flush quantity. After the heat treatment the box is pulled
out of the furnace, the charge taken from the box and placed in the quenching medium. We recommend using
binding wire on the parts so that they can easily be grasped by tongs.
A flexible type K thermocouple is installed in the box for measuring the temperature; we recommend connecting it to
a digital display device or to a temperature recorder.
The box can also be cooled down on a cooling platform while closed. Be sure that the protective gas flowrate is
increased for this application.

Protective Gas Boxes with Evacuation Lid for
Models N 7/H - N 614/13
For heat treatment of bulk goods and hollow parts under protective
gas atmosphere we recommend the usage of protective gas boxes
with an additional evacuation lid.
These boxes are equipped with a lid for top charging, protective
gas inlet and outlet as well as a evacuation lid with rubber sealing
gasket. Gas ductwork and handling while hot is the same as the
protective gas boxes described on page 37. In addition, these
boxes also feature a connection for a vacuum pump with a shut-off
valve.
After charging the box in a cold state it is evacuated and afterwards flushed with protective gas. By repeating
this process once or several times the results are considerably improved. After the box was flushed with protective
gas the last time, the evacuation lid is removed and the box is placed into the preheated furnace. Protective gas is
used for heat treatment. Thus traces of oxygen in the box can be reduced by a considerable amount which improves
the quality of the components accordingly.
After the heat treatment the box is taken out of the furnace and can be cooled in air or be opened to remove the

Air Circulation Chamber Furnaces, Electrically Heated
Also for Debinding in Air and under Protective Gases
Chamber furnaces with air circulation are characterized particularly by their very good temperature uniformity. As
a result, they are well suited for processes such as calcination and drying e.g. ceramic materials. The design as a
debinding furnace for safe debinding in air or in an inert atmosphere is possible. When used for debinding in air the
exhaust gases are diluted by fresh air to reliably prevent an inflammatory atmosphere in the furnace chamber. For
debinding processes that have to take place under inert gas, the IDB passive safety concept with a residual oxygen
content of max. 3 % is recommended.

Forced Convection Pit-Type Retort Furnaces
up to 850 °C
These systems are very well suited for the heat treatment of bulk
materials.
Up to a maximum working temperature of 600 °C, the furnaces can also be operated under
vacuum by connecting a vacuum pump depending on the type of pump, a vacuum of up to
10‑5 mbar can be achieved.
The furnaces can be equipped with gas supply systems for non-flammable protective and reaction
gases, as described on pages 52 - 53.

Temperature Measurement in Gas Supply Systems
The use of a thermometer with thermocouple is recommended for determining the exact heat treatment
temperature in protective gas boxes or gas feed annealing bags with holders. The thermocouple is
permanently mounted on the respective protective gas boxes or gas feed annealing bag holder. A simple
manual thermometer with LCD display or a temperature indicator with LED display can be supplied,
mounted in a separate metal housing. Both are equipped with a two-pole plug unit for connecting to
the thermocouple. The temperature can be determined in this way and, if necessary, readjusted on the
controller.
Upon request, the furnace can be operated by charge control with a thermocouple attached to the workpiece.
To carry out the temperature uniformity measurement (TUS) the protective gas box will be equipped
with a second lid. The TUS measuring frame is fixed to the lid and it is equipped with measuring port for
thermocouples.
Tmax 1100 °C
Useful for all relevant TUS norms

Gas Supply Systems
Protective Gases
Protective gases are used to force oxygen out of the gas feed boxes mentioned above. Make sure to use protective
gases behaving neutrally toward the heat treated part. The protective gases should be inert, meaning no chemical
bonding should occur with the workpiece or the furnace and no reactions should be enduced.
In many cases, nitrogen is used as protective gas (lighter than air). Our experience shows that nitrogen does not
always lead to sufficient results. A longer preflush time must also be used.
Better results are achieved by adding a mixture of nitrogen and adding some hydrogen. Hydrogen acts as a reducing
constituent and reacts with the oxygen. This gas mixture is known as forming gas and available in stores. Experience
has shown that adding 5 % hydrogen to the nitrogen leads to good results. According to the EU material safety data
sheet this mixture is considered as not flammable. National regulations, however, must be observed. This gas can
be obtained in premixed form. No measures must be taken in advance to prevent explosions.
If the workpiece has an affinity to hydrogen, argon used as protective gas can lead to good results.
Argon is a gas which is heavier than air. This makes it relatively easy to fill the protective gas containers. Forming
gas with added hydrogen (depending on the country law up to a ration of 98/2) is lighter, but it has the advantage
of burning at higher temperatures and therefore binds with the oxygen. Even in a cold state, the leaking hydrogen
transports the oxygen very easily out of the container.
For gas mixtures with hydrogen or other combustible gases, the valid safety regulations must always be observed.
If the mixture is declared as combustible, the furnace, provided it is a gas tight version, can be fitted with a
corresponding safety system.
Always make sure that the room is properly ventilated when working with protective gases. Country-specific safety
regulations must also be followed.

Ashing Furnaces with Integrated Exhaust Gas Cleaning
The ashing furnaces have a passive safety system and integrated exhaust
gas post combustion. An exhaust gas fan extracts flue gases from the
furnace and simultaneously supplies fresh air to the furnace atmosphere
with the result that sufficient oxygen is always available for the incineration
process. The incoming air is guided behind the furnace heating and
preheated to ensure good temperature uniformity. Exhaust gases are led
from the furnace chamber to the integrated post combustion system, where
they are postburned and catalytically cleaned. Directly after the incineration
process (up to max. 600 °C) a subsequent process up to max. 1100 °C can
take place.

Catalytic and Thermal Afterburning Systems, Exhaust Gas Washer
For exhaust gas cleaning, in particular in debinding, Nabertherm offers exhaust gas cleaning
systems tailored to the process. The afterburning system is permanently connected to the ex-
haust gas fitting of the furnace and accordingly integral part of the control system and the safety
matrix of the furnace. For existing furnaces, independent exhaust gas cleaning systems are also
available that can be separately controlled and operated.
66
Thermal afterburning systems (TNV)
Thermal afterburning systems are used if large volumes
of exhaust gas from the debinding process in air must be
cleaned and/or if there is a risk that the exhaust gases
might damage the catalyst. Thermal afterburning is also
used for debinding applications under non-flammable or
flammable protective or reaction gases.
67
Temperature Uniformity and System Accuracy
Temperature uniformity is defined as the maximum temperature deviation in the work space of the furnace. There
is a general difference between the furnace chamber and the work space. The furnace chamber is the total volume
available in the furnace. The work space is smaller than the furnace chamber and describes the volume which can
be used for charging.
System Accuracy
Tolerances may occur not only in the work space, they also exist with respect to the thermocouple and in the
controls. If an absolute temperature uniformity in +/- K at a defined set temperature or within a defined reference
working temperature range is required, the following measures have to be taken:
Measurement of total temperature deviation of the measurement line from the controls to the thermocouple
Holding frame for measurement of tempe- Measurement of temperature uniformity within the work space at the reference temperature or within the
rature uniformity
reference temperature range
If necessary, an offset is set at the controls to adjust the displayed temperature at the controller to the real
temperature in the furnace
Documentation of the measurement results in a protocol
The system accuracy is defined by adding Precision of the controls, Deviation of thermocouple, e.g. +/- 1.5 °C Deviation from measuring point
the tolerances of the controls, the thermo- e.g. +/- 1K to the average temperature in
couple and the work space the work space e.g. +/-3 °C

AMS 2750 E, NADCAP, CQI-9
Standards such as the AMS 2750 E (Aerospace Material Specifications) are applicable for the industrial processing
of high-quality materials. They define industry-specific requirements for heat treatment. Today, the AMS 2750 E
and derivative standards such as AMS 2770 for the heat treatment of aluminum are the guidlines for the aerospace
industry. After the introduction of the CQI-9, the automotive industry has also committed to submit heat treatment
processes to stricter rules. These standards describe in detail the requirements applicable to thermal processing
plants.
Norm compliance is necessary to ensure that the required quality standard of the manufactured components
can also be reproduced in series. For this reason, extensive and repeated inspections as well as controls of the
instrumentation, including the relevant documentation, are required.
Regular Inspections
The furnace or the heat treatment plant must be designed so that the requirements of the AMS 2750 E can be met
and be reproduced. The standard also requires the inspection intervals for the instrumentation (SAT = System
Accuracy Test) and the temperature uniformity of the furnace (TUS = Temperature Uniformity Survey). The SAT/TUS
tests must be performed by the customer with measuring devices and sensors which operate independently of the
furnace instrumentation.
Nabertherm Services
The suitable furnace model for the corresponding heat treatment can be designed based on the process, the
charge, the required furnace class and the type of instrumentation. Depending on the required specs, alternative
solutions can be offered.
Furnace designs, which meet standards, following customer specifications regarding furnace class and
instrumentation, incl. gauge connections for repeated customer inspections at regular intervals. No consideration
of requirements with respect to documentation

AMS 2750 E, NADCAP, CQI-9
Implementation of AMS 2750 E
Basically, two different systems are available for control and documentation, a proven Nabertherm system
solution or instrumentation using Eurotherm controllers/temperature recorders. The Nabertherm AMS package is a
convenient solution that includes the Nabertherm Control Center for control, visualization, and documentation of the
processes and test requirements based on PLC control.
Instrumentation with Nabertherm Control Center (NCC) for Control, Visualization, and Documentation
based on a Siemens PLC Controls
The attractive feature of the instrumentation with Nabertherm Control Center in combination with PLC controls of the
furnace is the convenient data input and visualization. The software programming is structured in a way that both the
user and the auditor can navigate it without difficulty.
Very easy to navigate and straight-forward presentation of all the data in plain text on the PC
Automatic saving of the charge documentation at the end of the program
Administration of the calibration cycles in the NCC
Results of the measurement distance calibration are entered in the NCC
Schedule management of the required testing cycles including a reminder function. The testing cycles for TUS
(Temperature Uniformity Survey) and SAT (System Accuracy Test) are entered in days and monitored by the
system and the operator or tester is informed in time about up-coming tests. The values of the tests are entered
directly into NCC and saved as PDF files on the PC. There are no additional tasks involved in documenting the
tests.
Option of transferring the measurement data to a customer's server

The Nabertherm Control Center can be extended to enable a complete documentation of the heat treatment
process apart from just the furnace data. For example, when heat-treating aluminum, in addition to the furnace, the
temperatures in the quenching basin or a separate cooling medium can also be documented.

Alternative Instrumentation with Temperature Controllers and Recorders from Eurotherm N 12012/26 HAS1 according to AMS 2750 E
As an alternative to instrumentation with the Nabertherm Control Center (NCC) and PLC controls, instrumentation
with controllers and temperature recorders is also available. The temperature recorder has a log function that
must be configured manually. The data can be saved to a USB stick and be evaluated, formatted, and printed on a
separate PC. Besides the temperature recorder, which is integrated into the standard instrumentation, a separate
recorder for the TUS measurements is needed (see page 72).
Furnace control
Charge Control
If the charge control is switched on, both the charge temperature and furnace chamber temperature are measured.
By setting different parameters the heat-up and cooling processes can be individually adapted. This results in a Charge control
more precise temperature control at the charge.

Temperature Recorder
Besides the documentation via the software which is connected to the controls, Nabertherm offers different
temperature recorders which can be used with respect to the application.
The process documentation with NTLog Basic requires no additional thermocouples or sensors. Only data recorded
which are available in the controller.
The data stored on the USB stick (up to 80,000 data records, format CSV) can afterwards be evaluated on the PC
either via NTGraph or a spreadsheet software used by the customer (e.g. MS Excel).
For protection against accidental data manipulation the generated data records contain checksums.
NTLog Comfort for data recording of a Visualization with NTGraph for Single-Furnace Control
Siemens PLC The process data from NTLog can be visualized either using the customer‘s own spreadsheet program (e.g.
MS‑Excel) or NTGraph (Freeware). With NTGraph Nabertherm provides for an additional user-friendly tool free of
charge for the visualization of the data generated by NTLog. Prerequisite for its use is the installation of the program
MS-Excel for Windows (version 2003/2010/2013). After data import presentation as diagram, table or report can be
chosen. The design (color, scaling, reference labels) can be adapted by using prepared sets. NTGraph is available in
seven languages (DE/EN/FR/SP/IT/CH/RU). In addition, selected texts can be generated in other languages.
