German term

Fallofen

German to English Tech/Engineering Materials (Plastics, Ceramics, etc.) furnace or kiln for firing
"Das Brennen kann kontinuierlich oder diskontinuierlich in Fallöfen, Gasöfen, Kammeröfen, Drehrohröfen, Mikrowellenöfen, Strahlungsöfen erfolgen"

This is in a patent about "antimicrobial glass surfaces of glass powders" and I am stumped as to what type of furnace or kiln a "Fallofen" is. I am grateful for any assistance that can be provided.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiln maybe if you can use this for digging deeper into the various methods of preparing glass/cermaics, it might turn up the proper term.
hope this helps a bit
