FAQ

What Are The Common Applications Of A Split Tube Furnace?

Split tube furnaces are commonly used for material testing (such as tensile testing), pyrolysis of organic materials, chemical vapor deposition (CVD) for thin film deposition, graphitization of carbon-containing materials, and sintering of ceramics. These applications benefit from the precise temperature control and easy sample handling offered by split tube furnaces.

What Are The Key Features Of A Split Tube Furnace?

A split tube furnace typically offers options for 1, 2, 3, or 5 heated zones, with a heated length ranging from 200-600mm and a heated diameter of 40-100mm. It includes dual-layer forced air-cooling to ensure a safe case temperature and uses a heating coil as the heating source, capable of reaching temperatures up to 1200°C. The furnace is designed with a cylindrical tube split lengthwise, often in two halves joined with hinges and equipped with pneumatic dampening struts for smooth operation.

How Does A Split Tube Furnace Work?

A split tube furnace operates by generating heat through a heating coil, which then transfers this heat to the workpiece or medium inside the furnace tube. This process ensures stable and uniform heating, making it suitable for various industrial and laboratory applications. The furnace can be configured with multiple heated zones and includes features like forced air-cooling to maintain safe external temperatures.

What Are The Advantages Of Using A Split Tube Furnace?

The main advantages of a split tube furnace include simplified loading and unloading of samples or equipment, reduced operational downtime, and enhanced efficiency. The split design allows for quick access to the furnace chamber, which is particularly beneficial for applications requiring frequent changes or intricate experimental setups. Additionally, features like pneumatic dampening struts and multiple heating zones further improve usability and performance.

What Temperature Can A Split Tube Furnace Reach?

A split tube furnace can reach a maximum temperature of 1200°C, making it suitable for high-temperature applications such as material synthesis, CVD, and sintering. The furnace uses a heating coil as the heat source and includes dual-layer forced air-cooling to maintain safe external temperatures during operation.

Why Is The Split Design Beneficial In A Tube Furnace?

The split design in a tube furnace is beneficial because it allows for quick and easy access to the furnace chamber. This design, often featuring two hinged halves with pneumatic dampening struts, simplifies the handling of complex setups or large samples, reduces operational downtime, and enhances overall efficiency, especially in applications requiring frequent changes or intricate configurations.
