A journey through time.

The history of DEKEMA.

  • 1973AUSTROMAT 2001 A

    DEKEMA world first: The very first furnace - the AUSTROMAT 2001 A - became a classic.

  • 1984AUSTROMAT 2001 B

    The next step: It was not until 1984 that the market demanded a further development - the AUSTROMAT™ 2001 B. The built-in pump made this compact furnace an all-rounder.

  • 1986AUSTROMAT 3000

    Two years later: market launch of the AUSTROMAT 3000, the world's first microprocessor-controlled furnace with an integrated pump - a completely new development.

  • 1989AUSTROMAT 3001

    Robust and versatile: With the AUSTROMAT 3001, dental technicians were able to control the firing process individually for the first time. The innovation: the storage and retrieval of up to 100 firing programs. Over 90 % of the devices delivered since 1989 are still in use - in some laboratories even around the clock.

  • 1991AUSTROMAT M

    Even more individuality: The AUSTROMAT M allowed technicians to directly influence the firing process for the first time.

  • 1994AUSTROMAT M oral design

    Extremely popular: The first furnace in collaboration with the company oral design offers a customized combustion chamber based on the AUSTROMAT 2001 A. One of the reasons why many customers still swear by it today.

  • 1999AUSTROMAT D series

    Technology update: The AUSTROMAT D series with 32-bit electronics and two-line display or color screen sets new standards. The improved sensor technology ensures consistently excellent firing results even today.

  • 2002AUSTROMAT 3001 press-i-dent

    Innovation: The AUSTROMAT 3001 press-i-dent has been equipped with a unique electromechanical upward pressing system (APS). Since then, this has enabled multiple pressings with different colors.

  • 2002AUSTROMAT D4 oral design

    Improved version: With the successor to the AUSTROMAT M oral design, the full range of functions of the AUSTROMAT D4 can now also be used with the oral design muffle.

  • 2006AUSTROMAT D4press

    Simply powerful: The AUSTROMAT D4press uses ambient pressure for the first time to press dental ceramics - without any compressed air connection, but with full pressing force.

  • 2007AUSTROMAT µSiC

    Fire and flame: The AUSTROMAT µSiC high-temperature furnace reaches sintering temperatures of up to 1600 °C. Thanks to the specific control of the robust SiC heating elements and the extended DEKEMA Autodry system, it enables fast heating and cooling cycles for the first time. This considerably shortens the program sequences when sintering zirconium dioxide.

  • 2008AUSTROMAT 354 press-i-dent

    Fully networked: The AUSTROMAT 354 press-i-dent integrates effortlessly into digital dental laboratories thanks to its network connection and integrated web browser. The large touchscreen enables flexible programming, while the Internet connection provides access to the DEKEMA firing program database. Based on the proven mechanics of the AUSTROMAT 3001 and optimized with experience from the trixpress™ multiple muffle system, it sets new standards.

  • 2009AUSTROMAT 424

    High-flyer: Thanks to advanced and network-compatible controls, the AUSTROMAT 424 quickly conquered the dental market. Since then, it has complemented the D4 as a high-quality furnace.

  • 2009AUSTROMAT 424 oral design

    New and innovative: The oral design version of the AUSTROMAT 424 was launched at the same time as the standard model. The aim: to inspire oral design's loyal customers with the technical possibilities.

  • 2010AUSTROMAT baSiC

    All-rounder: The AUSTROMAT µSiC - designed for smaller units - is the ideal addition for both compact milling units and large milling centers - with a maximum power consumption of just 2 kW.

  • 2011AUSTROMAT Series 6

    Concentrated know-how: The new Series 6 combines almost 40 years of experience in the construction of firing and press furnaces. With its new housing, revised mechanics, revolutionary electronics, touch operation and extended interfaces, it offers optimum benefits for the customer.

  • 2012AUSTROMAT Series 6 oral design

    Optimum: The standard furnace in the oral design edition has a specially optimized combustion chamber with handmade stone insulation.

  • 2014AUSTROMAT 664

    One for all: The AUSTROMAT 664 impresses with its user-friendly operation, short sintering cycles, low energy consumption and compact footprint.

  • 2015AUSTROMAT 674

    Simply great: The sintering concept of the Series 6 has been significantly expanded to process zirconia frameworks of any size - and with the same footprint.

  • 2017AUSTROMAT Series i

    Next milestone: The AUSTROMAT Series i is the first furnace in the world to be able to run programs directly via the network.

  • 2018AUSTROMAT 624i oral design

    Proven companion: The premium furnace from the oral design edition offers proven and optimized stone insulation. Thanks to the intuitive operation of the i series, it is still very popular today.

  • 2019trix™print

    New launch: trix™print will be presented as part of the revolutionary trix™ system at IDS in 2019. This system digitizes the entire pressing workflow, from modelling to pressing.

  • 2020AUSTROMAT 220

    Top performance without compromise: Made from high-quality materials, this furnace impresses with stability and durability at a weight of just 13 kg.

  • 2021trix™print²

    Print and go: trix™print² enables the fast and reliable production of dental applications such as crowns, bridges, veneers, partial dentures, frameworks, occlusal splints, precise working models and drilling templates.

  • 2023AUSTROMAT 220 oral design

    With attention to detail: The AUSTROMAT 220 of the oral design edition has a specially optimized combustion chamber with handmade stone insulation.

  • 2023myDEKEMA App

    Digital milestone: The myDEKEMA app is now available and sets new standards in terms of usability. It offers secure remote access, enables fast troubleshooting and minimizes downtimes. Users can also keep track of QM protocols at all times and have direct access to the DEKEMA database.

  • 2025Series i G2

    The series i G2 is here — with four color-customizable furnaces and the major Thor software version. More usability, an optimized user experience and perfect integration into the DEKEMA database. The result: intuitive, editable and even clearer software.
