What Materials can Vacuum Furnace Process?
Vacuum furnace is an equipment that designed for heating, processing, and preparation of materials in the absence of an atmosphere or low pressure. Its main feature is to create a low-pressure or atmosphere-free environment by vacuuming or adjusting the atmosphere, which can effectively prevent the adverse effects of oxidation, corrosion and other gases on materials. A typical vacuum furnace consists of a furnace cavity, vacuum system, heating system and atmosphere control system.
