Beam Properties
Gyrotron Beam Properties
The Gyrotron Beam is a new, efficient source of energy. Its high frequency and high energy concentration combined with the microwave nature of this novel product results in an energy source, different from any other. Unique properties include:
- ultra-rapid volumetric heating of non-metallic materials with heating rate of hundreds and thousands of degrees in one second
- selective heating of target regions inside an exposed material
- volumetric heating of small and large objects uniformly through varying thicknesses
- Ability to take any form, including: circular with Ø from 3mm (0.12″), strip with length up to 2m (6′), square and ellipse up to 60 sq ft. The beam can also be split to support two production lines or heat two sides of a product being processed simultaneously
- Ability to provide unique heating uniformity – up to 1%
