The high temperature of a tube furnace can range significantly, depending on the specific model and its design. The maximum temperature can vary from as low as 1100°C to as high as 3000°C. For instance, KINTEK tube furnaces offer a range from 1100°C to 2600°C, while a graphite tube furnace can reach up to 3000°C. Horizontal tube furnaces typically offer a maximum temperature range of 1200°C, 1400°C, and 1800°C. These furnaces are equipped with heating elements that ensure good thermal uniformity, and they are used for various high-temperature processes such as sintering, glass melting, and testing of ceramics.
The operation of a tube furnace involves heating samples contained within a work tube. The work tube is inserted into the furnace, and the samples are loaded for processing. The user sets a temperature on the furnace controller, and the furnace heats the samples by applying heat around the outside of the work tube. This method ensures that the samples are heated gradually and uniformly.
Different types of tube furnaces, such as high temperature, medium temperature, and low temperature furnaces, are designed to meet specific experimental needs. The furnace tube size can also be customized. Additionally, options like muffle tubes are available for processing in oxidizing or abrasive environments, extending the operational capabilities of the furnace.
