Microwave Techniques
The combination of Ferrite Microwave Technologies, IMS, and Mega Industries offers clients a one-stop shop for industrial microwave systems and components. As the global leader in high-power microwave technology and solutions, Microwave Techniques offers customers the most diverse range of products, capabilities, experience, and support in the industry.
Industrial Microwave Systems:
915MHz
Ferrite Microwave Technologies offers commercial-scale microwave systems and soltuions operating in the 915MHz frequency range. These include continuous (belt-based) units, batch indexing systems, booster ovens, cooking systems, and IMS units for heating or drying of liquids, chemicals, and fluids. 915MHz systems are available in single mode or multi-mode.
Industrial Microwave Systems:
2450MHz
Industrial Microwave Systems (IMS) 2450MHz systems are lab-scale units that apply microwave energy to various processes and applications. These style units are capable of processing webs of fabric, sheets of paper, strands of foam, conveyed beds of material, pumpable chemicals, food products, biomaterials, and more. Units available in planar or cylindrical topologies.
FMT Industrial Microwave Systems
