INDIAN SCIENCE AND R&D INDUSTRY REPORT   (AUGUST, 2019)




Introduction

India ranks third among the most attractive investment destinations for technology transactions in the world. Dr Harsh Vardhan, Union Minister of Department of Science & Technology, has reiterated that technology is a strong priority area for the government and it aims to make people science-centric. Modern India has had a strong focus on science and technology, realizing that it is a key element of economic growth. India is among the topmost countries in the world in the field of scientific research, positioned as one of the top five nations in the field of space exploration. The country has regularly undertaken space missions, including missions to the moon and the famed Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV).

India is likely to take a leading role in launching satellites for the SAARC nations, generating revenue by offering its space facilities for use to other countries.

Market size

India ranks 6th position for scientific publications and ranks at 10th for patents which included only resident applications. The total number of patent applications filed by scientists and inventors in India increased to 61,788 in FY19 (up to Dec 18) from 47,857 in FY18. India ranks 13th position at the Nature Index in 2017, based on counts of high-quality research outputs in natural sciences.

India improved its rank on the Global Innovation Index for the second year consecutively. From being ranked at the 81st position in 2015, India improved its ranking to 66th in 2016 and further to 60th in 2017.

The Government of India is extensively promoting research parks technology business incubators (TBIs) and (RPs) which would promote innovative ideas till they become commercial ventures. India is world’s third largest technology startup hub with the incorporation of 1,000 new companies in 2017.

Glass /High-Temperature Furnaces

The high-temperature furnaces HT 04/16 - HT 450/18 have proven reliability over many years in laboratory and production. Whether for quartz glass or glass ceramics, for sintering CIM components or for other processes up to a maximum temperature of 1800 °C, these furnaces afford the optimal solution for the sintering process.

High-temperature furnaces can either be insulated with fiber material or lightweight refractory bricks. Furnaces with fiber insulation achieve significantly shorter heating up times because of the low thermal mass. An insulation made of lightweight refractory bricks (see HFL models on page 32), on the other hand, has the advantage of better chemical stability.

These furnaces can also be tailored to specific processes by means of a wide range of additional equipment. The addition of a debinding package, for example, allows the use of these models as combi furnace for debinding and sintering in one process. Thermal or catalytic exhaust cleaning equipment rounds-off the system.

• Tmax 1600  °C, 1750  °C or 1800  °C
• Recommended working temperature 1750 °C (for models HT ../18), increased wear and tear must be expected in case of working at higher temperatures
• Dual shell housing with fan cooling for low shell temperatures
• Heating from both sides via molybdenum disilicide heating elements
• High-quality fiber insulation backed by special insulation
• Side insulation constructed with tongue and groove blocks provides for low heat loss to the outside
• Long-life roof insulation with special suspension
• Chain-guided parallel swivel door for defined opening and closing of the door
• Two-door design (front/back) for high-temperature furnaces > HT 276/..
• Labyrinth sealing ensures the least possible temperature loss in the door area
• Reinforced floor as protection for fiber insulation as standard from models HT 16/16 upwards
• Exhaust air opening in the furnace roof
• Heating elements switched via thyristors
• Over-temperature limiter with adjustable cutout temperature for thermal protection class 2 in accordance with EN 60519-2 as temperature limiter to protect the furnace and load
• Defined application within the constraints of the operating instructions
• NTLog Basic for Nabertherm controller: recording of process data with USB-flash drive

Additional equipment

• Uncontrolled or controlled cooling system with frequency-controlled cooling fan and motor-driven exhaust air flap
• Furnace in DB design featuring fresh air preheating, exhaust gas ventilation and an extensive safety package for debinding and sintering in one process, i. e. without transferring the material from the debinding furnace to the sintering furnace
• Stainless steel exhaust gas hoods
• Commissioning of the furnace with test firing and temperature uniformity measurement (also with load) for the purpose of process optimization
• Temperature measurement with thermocouples, types B and type S with automatic pull-out device for precise control results in the low-temperature range
• Protection grid in front of the heating elements to prevent mechanical damages
• Special heating elements for zirconia sintering provide for longer service life with respect to chemical interaction between charge and heating elements
• Protective gas connection for purging the furnace with non-flammable protective or reaction gases
• The manual or automatic gas supply system
• Inner process box to improve the gas tightness and to protect the furnace chamber against contamination
• Lift door
• Bottom insulation made of durable lightweight refractory bricks for heavy charge weights
• Motorized exhaust air flap, switchable via the program
• Exhaust air and exhaust gas piping
• Thermal or catalytic exhaust cleaning systems
• FID measurement for process optimization
• Process control and documentation via VCD software package or Nabertherm Control Center (NCC) for monitoring, documentation, and control
