During thermal debinding, the residual binder portion in the component should be removed. In order to avoid distortions and cracks of the components, this should take place under the best possible controlled conditions. This requires a homogeneous temperature distribution within the furnace chamber as well as exact control and monitoring of the cooling and cooling rates. Furnace concepts with several heating zones usually prove to be very useful here. In addition, the temperature distribution is to be monitored by at least three thermocouples in the furnace chamber.
