The use of production related, but notable smaller plants compared to production facilities, allow the development of plant technology and the testing of new alloys under the same conditions as in later production, but in significantly more economical test quantities. The combination of these Production related plants (see above) and using scientific methods of materials research allows efficient development of process-optimized alloys and industry-related process developments.
