DEKEMA has built ceramic furnaces in Germany since the 1930s. Its Austromat press range runs from the entry 644 (single-piston, ambient-pressure pressing) through the multi-stamp 654 to the connected flagship 654i G2 (IoT, 10.4" touchscreen, quality management). Here they are side by side — honest trade-offs, real photos.
Connected multi-stamp press & porcelain furnace · Made in Germany
Three Austromat press furnaces, entry to flagship. They share DEKEMA's closed firing chamber and program database; they differ in pressing system, screen, insulation and connectivity. Every photo is the real unit.
Entry combi furnace — fires like the 624, then presses with a patented single-piston, ambient-pressure system (no compressed-air line). Accepts standard rings up to 70 mm Ø under vacuum.
Multi-stamp combi — MPTA electromechanical upward pressing for multi-color, multi-ingot work in one ring. Closed chamber, no cold spots, stone insulation.
Flagship i-series — multi-stamp MPTA pressing plus a 10.4" touchscreen, IoT / remote control, AutoDry & AUTORITE lift and quality management.
Tell us whether you press one ring at a time or need multi-color, multi-ingot work — we'll point you to the right Austromat and confirm the spec with DEKEMA.
The Austromat 644 builds on the proven 624 firing furnace and adds pressing. Its patented system uses ambient pressure to press — so it works independently of any external compressed-air supply — and accepts standard ring systems from any press-ceramic supplier, with diameters up to 70 mm under vacuum. A 7.5" touchscreen drives the firing and press programs. It's the entry into DEKEMA pressing and the lowest-priced of the three.
The Austromat 654 steps up to DEKEMA's MPTA (Multiple Press Time Automatic) — a controlled electromechanical upward-pressing mechanism descended from the legendary AUSTROMAT 3001 press-i-dent. It presses multi-color and multi-ingot work in a single ring with high repeatability across high- and low-melting materials. Closed firing chamber, no cold spots, stone insulation. Same 7.5" touchscreen interface as the 644.
The Austromat 654i G2 keeps the 654's multi-stamp MPTA pressing and adds the i-series intelligence: a 10.4" touchscreen, IoT connectivity with remote control via the myDEKEMA app, process-data backup, program streaming, cloud management and the AutoDry & AUTORITE vibration-free lift. It runs on 115 V or 230 V and fires to 1200°C. It's the choice for labs that want documentation, remote monitoring and the newest DEKEMA platform.
Electromechanical upward pressing (654 / 654i G2) presses multi-color, multi-ingot work in one ring with high repeatability.
A closed chamber to 1200°C with even heat and no cold spots — the same firing quality across all three Austromat presses.
The 654i G2 adds remote monitoring and control through the myDEKEMA app, plus process-data backup and cloud management.
Access to 100,000+ firing, pressing and sintering programs from all major dental-ceramic manufacturers.
Automatic drying and a vibration-free lift on the i-series for cleaner results and more efficient cycles.
DEKEMA's trixpress investment-ring system covers the full spectrum of pressing and over-pressing techniques.
