Gyrotron Technology is a Delaware corporation founded in 1998 that develops and licenses industrial microwave technologies. It has two business areas: 1) developing technologies for glass, semiconductors, solar, and plastics industries, and 2) manufacturing and selling capital equipment for gyrotron processes and manufacturing laminated glass and solar modules. Gyrotron Technology holds patents and has niche markets in several industries. It uses gyrotron beams, which are electron beams that can be shaped and targeted precisely using mirrors and focusing systems to heat materials rapidly and in a controlled manner for various industrial applications.
2. Who is Gyrotron Technology?
A Delaware C Corp founded in 1998, GTI has 2 business
directions
• Development and licensing of
unique industrial microwave
technologies for glass,
semiconductors, solar and plastics;
• Manufacture and sale of capital
equipment for gyrotron processes,
as well as for manufacturing
laminated glass and encapsulating
solar modules.
Three partner companies in the
US, Germany, and Russia for
manufacturing of capital The Company holds patents and
equipment has market niche in several
industries
4. The bean can be shaped into any form – circular, strip, square, etc by
using simple metal mirrors, greatly increasing processing possibilities
5. The beam can be shaped into any form – circular, strip, square, etc
By using simple metal mirror By using special focusing system
6. Controllable Heating
Gyrotron energy can be targeted into any area:
Top area (to required depth)
Bottom area (to required volume)
Inside (to required thickness)
7. Heating Options - Ribbon
The beam can be formed into a horizontal or vertical ribbon
shape and product can be moved relative to the stationary
beam
8. Heating Options - Scanning
The beam can be scanned to heat selected areas to selected
temperatures using a configuration of moving mirrors
9. Gyrotron energy can be targeted in any area:
Top area (to required depth)
Bottom area (to required volume)
Inside (to required thickness)
The Gyrotron Beam can be spread or scanned over large areas and
any required temperature distribution can be achieved

The gyrotron enables focusing enormous energy precisely and only where needed, heating
materials ultra rapidly (thousands 0C per second) volumetrically or exclusively.
The gyrotron beam is a new heat source possessing unique and desirable properties for
processing glass and other materials
Editor's Notes
The Gyrotron produces a beam… and since it is a beam we can control the shape, location, and depth of the heating
