1000ºC Max. Vacuum Pressing Furnace up to with 4" Quartz Tube - OTF-1200X-VHP4

SKU: otf-1200x-vhp4

Price: RFQ

Specifications

The OTF-1200X-VHP4 is designed for making dense compound materials under both vacuum and high pressure up to 2 metric tons . It is integrated with a split vertical tube furnace with a vacuum-sealed 4" quartz tube and 2000 kg digital electric press, as well as one set of 0.5" ID graphite pressing dies. The furnace can be heated up to 1000ºC using a temperature controller with 30 programmable segments. Water-cooled flanges facilitate a vacuum level up to 10E^-5 Torr via the use of an optional turbomolecular pump. Note: The hydraulic press has been converted into a more precise digital electric press since March 25, 2020 SPECIFICATIONS: Max. Pressure 2 metric tons ( 100 Mpa on 0.5" ID graphite ) limited by supporting structure Digital Electric Press Built-in a digital electric press with Max. load capability of 2 metric tons on the bottom of the furnace Pressure adjustment range: 0.1-2 T adjustable with constant pressure function Travel distance 20 mm Pressure accuracy: +/- 0.003T Time setting: 1 - 999 minutes Please click on the left picture for details.
