A microwave furnace is a type of laboratory furnace that is used to carry out thermal research protocols. It combines free radiating heating elements with a microwave field. Unlike traditional furnaces that heat material from the outside in, microwave furnaces use microwave energy to heat volumetrically. This means that the material is heated throughout its entire volume.
Microwave furnaces have various uses, including high temperature synthesis, sintering, ashing, melting, and heat treatment of solid materials in an air atmosphere. They are commonly used in laboratory applications and production plants for their distinct advantages over conventional furnaces.
There are different types of microwave furnaces available, including tabletop microwave sintering furnaces, continuous microwave sintering furnaces, labscale microwave sintering furnaces, high temperature microwave sintering furnaces, and pilot scale microwave sintering furnaces. Each type has specific features and capabilities to suit different research and production needs.
Tabletop microwave sintering furnaces are designed for small quantity lab scale experiments. They are packed with advanced features and utilize microwave technology for conducting various sintering experiments.
Continuous microwave sintering furnaces have a higher throughput and are capable of processing larger quantities of material, ranging from 50 to 1000 kg per day. They offer features such as non-contact temperature monitoring, step-less power control, digital display of power and temperature, and a conveying system with controls for speed and position.
Labscale microwave sintering furnaces are revolutionary products that enable conducting various sintering experiments for establishing preliminary results. They are suitable for prototype development.
High temperature microwave sintering furnaces have a maximum process temperature of 1750°C and an effective hotzone of 100 mm to 300 mm on all sides. They offer features such as non-contact temperature monitoring, step-less power control, and state-of-the-art process control using high-end PID controllers.
Pilot scale microwave sintering furnaces are advanced systems with high microwave power and a state-of-the-art control system. They are designed for sintering larger samples at a pilot scale and are suitable for industries looking to replace their current heating systems with microwave sintering furnaces. These furnaces provide a bridge between lab experiments and industrial production.
Overall, microwave furnaces offer efficient and controlled heating for various thermal research protocols, making them valuable tools in laboratory and industrial settings.
