Autoclave manufactures
systems used to impregnate a process product with a fluid or gas in order
to achieve a desired composition. A typical example of this process would
be in the foam industry. A polymer is impregnated with nitrogen under
high pressure and temperature conditions. Other applications include metal
or ceramic impregnation using various fluids or gasses. The result is
different types of usable products, used in everything from footwear to
Aluminum Smelting.
Any system involving a high-pressure vessel or stirred reactor.

BENEFITS
Autoclave Engineers specializes
in custom designs for Impregnation Systems. As cycle times tend to be
longer in the impregnation process, fully threaded closures are available.
For applications involving gases Autoclave offers valve rack designs,
and those utilizing fluids, we also offer optional pumping systems. Metal
or ceramic crucibles are available in various sizes.
