KSL-1700X-MGI-8-AD Multi-Chamber Box Furnace System with 8 Independent 1700°C Chambers and Automated Doors for Continuous High-Throughput Heat Treatment
The KSL-1700X-MGI-8-AD is engineered to meet the demands of advanced material research requiring simultaneous heat treatment of multiple samples under independently controlled conditions. This system integrates eight compact box furnaces, each with a working chamber dimension of 120 mm cubic, enabling efficient use of laboratory space and energy. It is ideal for workflows that require processing diverse samples at different temperatures concurrently, accelerating new material discovery and development.
Each chamber is capable of reaching a maximum temperature of 1700°C, with continuous operation up to 1600°C and short-term peaks up to 1700°C (with optional extension to 1750°C). The heating elements are molybdenum disilicide (MoSi2), and temperature is monitored by B-type thermocouples, ensuring precise and stable thermal conditions. The system features an intelligent PID control with 50 programmable stages and touchscreen interface for easy operation. Automated doors on each chamber open and close as programmed, facilitating sample loading and unloading without manual intervention.

Typische Anwendungsbereiche
This furnace system is suited for high-throughput heat treatment tasks in materials science research, including sintering, annealing, and thermal processing of ceramics, metals, and composites. Its multi-chamber design allows simultaneous testing of different temperature profiles, accelerating experimental workflows in new material development and quality control.
Hinweise zur Konfiguration und zum Betrieb
The system supports optional integration with a robotic arm and sample tray station for fully automated 24/7 operation. Users should avoid using flammable, explosive, or toxic gases with this equipment. The furnace requires a dedicated power source with voltage stability within ±8% and should be installed away from equipment generating strong magnetic fields or conductive powders. Normal wear includes insulation cracks and heating element degradation, which can be repaired or replaced as needed. Opening the furnace door above 500°C is not recommended to maintain safety and temperature stability.
