The application areas of vacuum sintering furnaces are numerous, so instead of listing them all, here is a guide on how to choose the right vacuum sintering furnace.
- Satisfaction with Special Gases: Regardless of whether the process gases can pass through, their use may be necessary. If the products being sintered in the vacuum furnace sometimes require certain gases, this feature is essential.
- Specifications of the Vacuum Gauge: Some vacuum gauges are sensitive to contamination and may fail. If high vacuum is not required, it is practical to request the manufacturer to include an additional Pirani vacuum gauge.
- Vacuum Time: The time needed to reach the required vacuum depends on the quality of the mechanical and Roots pumps. How long it takes for the vacuum sintering furnace to achieve the desired vacuum is an important consideration when purchasing equipment.
- Wax Collector: Some products are used together with glue or wax, so attention must be paid to the wax collection device. Its cleaning port should be easy to open. Additionally, if normal-temperature wax is used as a solid forming agent, the wax collection device must be capable of heating.
- After-Sales Support for the Vacuum Sintering Furnace: Some manufacturers provide one-time product sales and do not offer individual replacement parts. This factor must be considered; otherwise, the furnace may remain unusable due to worn parts even if the main equipment is intact.
