The vacuum intermediate frequency sintering furnace is a periodic operation equipment with a vertical structure. It is currently widely used in industries such as non-ferrous metals, powder metallurgy, ceramics, optoelectronic materials, stainless steel, and molybdenum products, and is sintered in a vacuum or protective atmosphere.
Vacuum intermediate frequency sintering furnace is a sintering equipment that adopts the principle of vacuum induction heating. Its main working principle is to use the principle of electromagnetic induction to generate induced current through changes in magnetic fields, thereby generating heat and achieving heating of materials. Meanwhile, by adding a vacuum system, sintering can be carried out in anaerobic or extremely low oxygen environments, thereby avoiding the occurrence of adverse reactions such as oxidation.
In a vacuum intermediate frequency sintering furnace, the sintering process usually goes through several key steps. Firstly, the material and sintering mold are placed together in the furnace, and then the vacuum system is activated to extract the atmosphere from the furnace to a lower pressure. Next, according to specific process requirements, the material will be heated through an induction heating system. During the heating process, the vacuum degree and atmosphere inside the furnace will be controlled to ensure the normal operation of the sintering process. Finally, when the material reaches the required temperature, stop heating and cool the furnace. When the temperature drops to an operable range, take out the sintered product.
The advantages of vacuum induction sintering furnace mainly focus on the
following aspects. Firstly, due to the use of vacuum or protective atmosphere,
the risk of material oxidation can be effectively reduced, resulting in a purer
sintered product. Secondly, the design of vertical structure equipment ensures
more uniform heat transfer during the sintering process, ensuring the quality of
material sintering. In addition, the vacuum induction heating method also has
advantages such as fast heating speed, good effect, and low energy
consumption.
In practical applications, vacuum induction sintering furnaces
have been widely used. In the non-ferrous metal industry, it can be used for
sintering metals such as copper, aluminum, nickel, etc. In the field of powder
metallurgy, it can be used for sintering metal powders such as tungsten and
molybdenum. In the manufacturing of ceramics and optoelectronic materials,
vacuum induction sintering furnaces can be used for sintering alumina ceramics,
lithium-ion batteries, and other materials. In addition, this equipment can also
play a crucial role in the production of stainless steel and molybdenum
products.
In summary, vacuum induction sintering furnace is a periodic operation equipment for sintering under vacuum or protective atmosphere, mainly suitable for non-ferrous metals, powder metallurgy, ceramics, optoelectronic materials, stainless steel and molybdenum products and other fields. It adopts the principle of vacuum induction heating, which has advantages such as fast heating speed, good effect, and low energy consumption, and is widely used in industrial production.
