Vacuum Furnace Products
Vacuum furnace products are specialised materials and components designed to operate in vacuum furnaces. A vacuum furnace is a furnace in which a vacuum surrounds the product during processing. These furnaces are used for various industrial applications, such as heat treatment, brazing, sintering, and annealing. Especially when high precision and control over the heating process are required, or when oxidation of the product must be avoided.
Components of a vacuum furnace must be able to withstand not only high temperatures but also vacuum conditions, which can place unique stresses on materials. These products can include heating elements, insulation materials, crucibles, heat shields, vacuum pump parts, and other components designed to operate reliably in a vacuum and at high temperatures.
Graphite is commonly used in vacuum furnace products for its high thermal resistance. Excellent electrical conductivity and mechanical stability. It is also chemically inert, which makes it an ideal material for use in vacuum environments where reactions with other substances must be minimised.
