Desktop Vacuum Atmosphere Furnace
Product Overview
The Desktop Vacuum Atmosphere Furnace, also known as an oxygen-free annealing furnace, integrates advanced vacuum technology with precision thermal processing capabilities. This compact laboratory-scale system enables a full range of vacuum heat treatment processes, enhancing sintering efficiency while significantly improving material quality and densification.
Ideal for research and small-batch production, the furnace supports customized atmosphere control based on material requirements:
- Oxygen atmosphere for transparent ferroelectric ceramics
- Hydrogen atmosphere for transparent alumina ceramics
- Nitrogen atmosphere for nitride ceramics (e.g., aluminum nitride)
- Precision annealing and crystallization for glass materials
- High-temperature sintering for electronic/structural ceramics
- Rapid heating quenching processes for metal components
- Specialized operation: Hydrogen protection for molybdenum wire systems, vacuum-protected operation for tungsten wire systems
