Experimental rotary tube furnace heat treatment temperature range

The heat treatment temperature range of experimental rotary tube furnaces is usually determined based on the furnace body design, heating element materials, and experimental requirements. The common temperature range is between 1000 ℃ and 1600 ℃, and some equipment can reach up to 1700 ℃ or even higher.

The selection of temperature range for experimental rotary tube furnace should be based on specific experimental requirements. For example, for high-temperature sintering experiments in material research, it may be necessary to select equipment with a maximum temperature of 1600 ℃ to support the processing of high melting point materials; For some conventional metal or ceramic heat treatment experiments, a temperature range of 1000 ℃ to 1200 ℃ can meet the requirements.

When selecting equipment, attention should also be paid to the material of the heating elements in the furnace. Resistance wire heating elements are typically suitable for temperature ranges below 1200 ℃, while silicon carbide or MoSi ₂ heating elements can support higher temperatures, such as 1600 ℃ to 1800 ℃. In addition, the insulation material and structural design of the furnace body will also affect its maximum operating temperature and temperature uniformity.

The temperature control accuracy of experimental rotary tube furnaces is usually high, reaching ± 1 ℃ or even higher, which helps ensure the accuracy and reproducibility of experimental results. At the same time, some devices also support independent temperature control in multiple temperature zones, allowing different temperatures to be set for different areas according to experimental needs, achieving more accurate temperature gradient control.
