Industrial large-scale vacuum heat treatment furnaces can be used for sintering. Here are specific instructions:
Sintering function: The vacuum heat treatment furnace has the function of achieving vacuum sintering. For example, a vacuum sintering furnace is a specialized equipment used for sintering in a vacuum environment. Its working principle is to use medium frequency induction heating to generate high temperature in the tungsten crucible inside the coil under the protection of hydrogen gas after vacuum pumping, and then conduct it to the workpiece through thermal radiation. It is suitable for powder forming and sintering of refractory alloys such as tungsten, molybdenum and their alloys in scientific research and military units.
Material Applicability: Vacuum heat treatment furnaces are suitable for sintering various materials, including hard alloys, ceramics, stainless steel materials, powder metallurgy, metal injection molding, etc. Sintering in a vacuum state can prevent the material from reacting with oxygen, nitrogen, and other gases in the air, thereby obtaining high-quality sintered products.
Process advantages: Sintering can be carried out in a vacuum environment, which can remove gases and impurities from the material, improve the densification degree and performance of the product. Meanwhile, vacuum sintering can also reduce or eliminate adverse reactions such as oxidation and decarburization during the sintering process, which is beneficial for obtaining pure surface quality and excellent mechanical properties.
