VBF-1200X-H-AM Automatic Vacuum Chamber Furnace with 1100°C Max Temperature, 7.6 L Quartz Chamber, Programmable Atmosphere and Door Control
Temperature control is programmable with up to 30 segments for ramping, dwelling, and cooling, maintaining accuracy within ±1°C. The furnace can reach temperatures up to 1100°C for short durations (up to 30 minutes) at ambient pressure, or sustain continuous operation up to 1000°C under vacuum or ambient conditions. The heating module consists of a fibrous alumina element with Fe-Cr-Al wires, ensuring uniform heating. The system integrates a multifunctional stainless steel water-cooled flange assembly with automatic sliding door operation, controllable via a touchscreen panel or PC interface. Atmosphere regulation is managed through a built-in mass flow controller, enabling vacuum levels down to 5×10⁻² torr with the included mechanical pump, or lower with an optional turbopump.

대표적인 적용 분야
This furnace is suitable for advanced materials research and development tasks requiring controlled atmosphere heat treatment, such as annealing, sintering, oxidation/reduction studies, and vacuum processing. Its programmable atmosphere and temperature control make it ideal for semiconductor, ceramics, metallurgy, and battery materials laboratories.
구성 및 작동 안내
The furnace includes a mechanical vacuum pump and water chiller for flange cooling as standard. Users may optionally add a turbopump for deeper vacuum levels and a Eurotherm temperature controller for enhanced temperature accuracy (±0.1°C). The automatic door and atmosphere control can be programmed via the touchscreen or PC interface. For automated sample handling, integration with a robotic arm is available upon request, supported by an open communication protocol. Proper water cooling and vacuum system maintenance are essential for safe and reliable operation.
