What Are The Uses of Vacuum Sintering Furnace?

Sintering furnace is an important industrial equipment, its main use is to process powder or fine granular materials into solid materials with a certain strength and shape through high temperature action. The following are several specific uses of sintering furnaces:

1.Metallurgical industry: Sintering furnace in the metallurgical industry is mainly used for sintering iron ore, coke and other materials, to convert them into solid pellets, in order to facilitate the reduction reaction in the blast furnace smelting process. In addition, sintering furnaces are also used for the smelting of non-ferrous metals, such as the production of chromite, nickel-iron and ferromanganese alloys

2.Ceramic and glass manufacturing: In the field of ceramic and glass manufacturing, sintering furnaces are used to make physical and chemical changes in raw ceramic or glass raw materials at high temperatures, resulting in the formation of dense polycrystalline sintered bodies or glass products. This includes ceramic powders, ceramic cores, zirconia ceramics, and the sintering process of glass

3.Chemical industry: Sintering furnaces can be used in the chemical industry to produce iron oxide, alumina and other products, and to carry out other chemical reactions that require high temperature treatment

4.Building materials Industry: In the building materials industry, sintering furnaces are used to produce products such as kiln-fired lime, which have a wide range of applications in construction and road constructing

5.New energy field: Sintering furnaces are also used in the field of new energy, such as in the production process of solar panels, which requires the use of sintering furnaces for high temperature sintering and heat treatment

6.Research and education: Sintering furnaces are also widely used in universities, scientific research institutes and other institutions for material science research and teaching, as well as the development and testing of new materials.

In general, the use of sintering furnace is very wide, it plays an important role in many industrial fields.
