Annealing furnace up to 1600°C in Ar, N2, O2
An annealing furnace with a corundum (alumina) tube designed for operation up to 1600°C is a high-performance thermal system typically used for heat treatment in various controlled atmospheres.
Specification
Furnace Structure
Heating Chamber: The furnace contains a heating chamber made of high-quality insulation materials, minimizing heat loss and ensuring uniform temperature distribution.
Corundum Tube: The heating process occurs within a corundum (alumina) tube, known for its excellent thermal stability, resistance to high temperatures, and chemical inertness.
Maximum Temperature
The furnace can achieve temperatures up to 1600°C, suitable for applications like annealing, and high-temperature materials testing.
PID Temperature Regulation
Equipped with PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) controllers for precise temperature control. Offers stability and accuracy with minimal temperature fluctuations, ensuring process consistency. Features include programmable heating ramps, dwell times, and cooling rates.
Atmosphere Control
Air: Standard atmospheric annealing for general-purpose heat treatment.
Argon (Ar): Provides an inert atmosphere to prevent oxidation and contamination during processing.
Nitrogen (N2): Used for creating a neutral or reducing environment, suitable for processes requiring nitrogen blanketing.
Oxygen (O2): For oxidation or specialized high-temperature oxidation processes.
Safety Features
Over-temperature protection to prevent overheating.
Gas flow and exhaust systems to safely manage the selected environment.
Sealing mechanisms to maintain atmosphere purity within the tube.
Applications
Materials Science: Annealing ceramics, metals, and composites.
Research: Development of high-temperature materials and coatings.
Industrial: Sintering of advanced ceramics or high-performance alloys.
Electronics: Heat treatment of semiconductor components.
