Explore horizontal vs. vertical, split vs. solid, and single-zone vs. multi-zone tube furnaces. Choose the right design for CVD, annealing, or powder processing.
Learn how a vertical furnace uses indirect heating and a vertical orientation for unmatched temperature uniformity and minimal contamination in wafer processing.
Learn why quartz tube strength depends on surface condition and temperature, not a single stress value, and how to ensure reliability in your application.
Learn why furnace and vacuum brazing offer superior joint strength, cleanliness, and repeatability compared to manual torch methods for high-precision assemblies.
Compare torch, furnace, induction, dip, and resistance brazing methods. Learn how to choose the best process for your production volume, materials, and joint design.
Learn why tungsten's practical limit in a vacuum is sublimation, not its 3422°C melting point, and how to optimize its use for your high-temperature applications.
Learn how vacuum furnaces use indirect radiant heating in a vacuum environment to prevent contamination and ensure uniform, repeatable results for critical applications.
Discover how vacuum sintering prevents contamination, ensures precise control, and delivers high-density, high-strength parts for critical applications.
