Collanos custom-formulated RS 8507 adhesive features high strength combined with elasticity, so it precisely matches the criteria for assembling the frames of the safety doors. Jurg Ryser, who is in charge of fabrication at Elkuch Bator, enjoys working with Collano: "The excellent service and hands-on development support we received from Collano contributed significantly to the success of the project."

At the heart of its development is the SOFConnex™ based Solid Oxide Fuel Cell stack, which uses a unique approach for stacking ceramic fuel cells. This key component combines perfectly with HTc’ own and other manufacturers’ cells. HTc has continuously demonstrated increased specific and absolute power over the past few years, sufficient to start commercializing its products now. Major advantage for system integrators : The SOFConnex™ technology is flexible and allows customisation of stacks at low cost. The same technology also encounters industrial interest for adaptation to oxygen membrane syngas reactors and high temperature electrolysers. As a university spin off, HTc cooperates closely with and has privileged access to the test, analysis and simulation capacity of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL). Within EU projects, academic partners are Forschungszentrum Jülich (DE), the Energy Research Centre of the Netherlands (ECN) and Risoe (DK). HTc holds a key position by providing SOFC stacks. HTc’ flexibility in stack design and cell integration enables all partners to effectively benefit from these joint research efforts. Today, several partners are integrating HTc’ stacks or components into their systems with the aim of developing and commercialising products. Their various markets range from portable power to combined heat and power (CHP). HTc’ pilot production laboratory has delivered cells and prototype stacks to customers in Europe, North America and Asia, and its products encounter commercial interest in the Near East and South America. HTc exclusively uses scaleable processes compatible with cost effective industrial mass production. For large scale production, HTc is considering joint ventures and licensing agreements with powder and ceramic manufacturers to achieve the demanding price targets of today’s energy industry. Technical evaluations are already ongoing with established industries.

In comparison with other machining techniques, such as milling and turning, for example, thread cutting poses more complex requirements. Many ancillary production factors, such as chip removal or coolant supply, also have to be taken into account in the design of thread cutting tools. But the ultimate effectiveness of the tool results from a symbiosis between cutting geometry, high and consistent raw material quality and the judicious application of surface coatings that enhance performance. Thread cutting tools from DC are made using the latest and most modern production technologies to guarantee economy of cost and extremely consistent, fault-free manufacture. Your expectations and your quality requirements are at the heart of the further development of our precision tools and of the whole range of services that we provide. Tell us what you want: we are accustomed to developing well thought-out solutions and innovations based on the most recent advances in technology.
