GRF-3000 High-Temperature Graphitization and Sintering Furnace with Ø240×340 mm Heating Chamber
The GRF-3000 furnace is engineered for demanding laboratory applications involving graphitization, sintering, and high-temperature heat treatment up to 3000°C. It supports processes that require a controlled atmosphere, operating effectively under high vacuum conditions or with protective argon gas to maintain sample purity and prevent oxidation. This furnace is ideal for materials research and development where precise thermal profiles and ultra-high temperatures are essential.
The heating chamber measures 240 mm in diameter and 340 mm in length, providing a working volume of approximately 15 liters. The furnace employs an induction heating system powered by an IGBT power supply capable of delivering up to 80 kW, with typical working power not exceeding 60 kW. Temperature control is managed by a Mitsubishi PLC with a touchscreen interface, offering PID control accuracy within ±1°C and temperature uniformity within ±10°C under protective gas flow conditions.
