Product Overview
Our Molybdenum Strip Vacuum Furnace sets a new standard in high-temperature vacuum processing technology for the US market. This horizontally integrated furnace system is engineered for demanding research and industrial applications, excelling in processing functional ceramics, optical materials, carbon composites, hard alloys, and advanced powder metallurgy components under both high-vacuum and protective gas environments.
The furnace features a sophisticated double-layer water cooling system throughout the body and door assembly. The interior chamber, crafted from precision-polished 304 stainless steel, incorporates a multi-layer molybdenum and stainless steel insulation system with specialized fixation methods to minimize thermal deformation. This advanced construction, combined with high-performance vacuum components and sophisticated electronic controls, delivers exceptional temperature uniformity and process control.
