Horizontal High-Temperature Tube Furnace

The Horizontal High-Temperature Tube Furnace by Brother is designed for high-temperature sintering, heat treatment, and material processing under controlled atmospheric conditions. Featuring a high-purity quartz or alumina furnace tube, the furnace supports operating temperatures from 300°C to 1600°C, depending on the heating element configuration. It provides precise temperature control, excellent temperature uniformity, and compatibility with inert gas atmospheres, making it suitable for laboratory research, industrial testing, and small-batch production.

Key Features

• High-Temperature Performance: Maximum temperatures of 1200°C with heating wires, 1400°C with SiC heating elements, and 1600°C with MoSi₂ heating elements.
• Precise Temperature Control: 50-segment programmable PID controller, temperature control accuracy of ±1°C, and a heating rate of up to 20°C/min.
• Atmosphere Control: Supports inert gas protection and vacuum operation for applications requiring reduced oxidation and controlled processing environments.
• Durable Construction: Double-shell, air-cooled housing keeps the furnace surface temperature below 50°C under specified operating conditions. 304 stainless steel double-sealing flanges improve sealing performance.
• Adjustable Tube Supports: Adjustable flange support structures at both ends help maintain furnace tube alignment and extend tube service life.
• Safety Protection: Automatic over-temperature shutdown and electrical leakage protection improve operational safety.
• Vacuum Capability: The furnace can achieve a maximum vacuum level of -0.1 MPa with the standard vacuum specification. When equipped with a molecular pump, the maximum vacuum level can reach up to 7 × 10⁻⁴ Pa, subject to system configuration and operating conditions.
