About JUCHHEIM Laborgeräte
JUCHHEIM Laborgeräte GmbH has been manufacturing laboratory equipment, pressure reactors and systems made of stainless steel or nickel-based alloys for academic and industrial research and development since 1927. The portfolio comprises stirred autoclaves and pressure reactors with volumes from 10 ml to 200 l (vacuum to 500 bar), stirring technology with magnetic or mechanical couplings up to 200 bar and 400 °C, special valves, heat exchangers, pressure filters, columns and distillation bridges as well as heating and cooling systems. On request, reactors are available with PTFE or tantalum coatings, as glass pressure reactors or as digitalized benchtop reactor systems with data logger and controller. The company manufactures customized pressure vessels in accordance with AD 2000 and CE per PED 2014/68/EU, offers system and plant engineering for laboratory and pilot systems, and supplies spare and extension parts for older systems. Production takes place 100 % at the Bernkastel-Kues site in Germany.
