High temperature chamber furnace for sintering ceramics
Achieve precise thermal consistency for high-temperature applications, ensuring flawless sintering and annealing of advanced materials and components.

Sintering and Debinding of Ceramics and Metals
The HTF 17/64 from Carbolite Gero is a high-temperature furnace designed for precision in sintering and debinding processes essential for advanced ceramics and metallic components. Utilizing MoSi2 heating elements, it efficiently attains temperatures up to 1800°C, ensuring uniform heat distribution due to its advanced refractory and low thermal mass insulation. This furnace is suited for producing zirconia dental crowns, tungsten carbide parts, and alumina substrates. With up to 560 liters capacity, it incorporates programmable EPC3016P1 controllers and over-temperature protection for reliable batch processing. An optional debinding package enhances atmosphere control, making it ideal for dexterous ceramic and metal powder applications. Integration is seamless with user-friendly touchscreen controls, Ethernet communication, and compliance with industrial standards. The HTF 17/64 offers an energy-efficient solution, minimizing heat loss and negating the need for water cooling, while customization options allow specific adaptations for varied operational requirements.
