ancorro - Technology

The core element of the process is the application of our special surface-treatment technology to components that are highly stressed during melting processes. This surface-treatment technology generates a beading effect on the surface of porous refractory components.

The functional principle of the technology, shown here under a hot stage microscope, is comparable with beading effects found in nature.

After using the surface-treatment technology, the porous material is protected against wear caused by the melt, nearly reaching the standard of fused cast products.
