HVF2000X-AM 2000°C Automatic Bottom Loading High Vacuum Furnace with Computer-Controlled Sintering Cycle
The HVF2000X-AM is engineered for precise high-temperature sintering and heat treatment processes requiring ultra-high vacuum environments. Its bottom-loading design facilitates easy sample handling and loading, while the fully automated control system manages the entire sintering cycle—from door closure and vacuum evacuation to heating, soaking, cooling, and door opening—minimizing manual intervention and ensuring repeatable results.
This furnace achieves a maximum temperature of 2000°C within a heating chamber sized at 150 mm diameter by 200 mm height, using a consumable tungsten heating sleeve. The vacuum chamber is water-cooled stainless steel (SS304) with multiple ports for vacuum generation, gauges, and gas inlet/outlet, enabling vacuum levels down to 1 x 10⁻⁶ Torr via a 300 L/s turbopump. The system includes a touch-screen interface for multi-segment temperature programming and remote communication via RS485 and MODBUS RTU protocols.
