A typical laboratory vacuum furnace includes a sealed heating chamber, vacuum pumping system, temperature control unit, and safety interlocks. Our systems also allow the introduction of inert gases such as argon or nitrogen, expanding the range of applications that can be performed in a single unit.
Normantherm also places emphasis on modular and customizable designs. Furnace chamber sizes, heating zones, maximum operating temperatures, and vacuum levels can be configured to match specific laboratory requirements. This flexibility allows researchers to adapt the equipment to different materials and processes without compromising performance.
Vacuum Tube Furnaces
These are commonly used in labs because they provide controlled vacuum environments, precise temperature regulation, and flexibility for different processes such as brazing, sintering, annealing, and heat treatment.
- TF1000-200HV: A high-vacuum tube furnace, suitable for materials research and small sample processing.
- TF1000-250HV: Similar vacuum tube design with a slightly larger chamber.
- TF1000-250HV-SL: Tube furnace with sliding rail, convenient for easier loading/unloading of samples in a lab environment.
These models are typically compact, customizable in tube diameter and heating zone length, and suitable for controlled high-temperature experiments under vacuum or inert gas.
VF1300 Series Vacuum Furnaces
Normantherm’s VF1300 series offers robust vacuum furnaces that can be configured for laboratory use, especially when the application requires higher capacity or slightly larger chamber volumes:
- VF1300-422: Standard vacuum furnace model that’s often used for vacuum brazing and heat treatment processes.
- VF1300-644: Front and rear heating type vacuum furnace that provides improved temperature uniformity.
- VF1300-966 & VF1300-1288: Larger vacuum furnace versions that can be adapted for lab setups where larger or more complex sample processing is needed.
