Description

1400°C Rotary Tube Electric Furnace

The rotary tube furnace is specialized laboratory and industrial equipment designed for continuous high-temperature heat treatment, atmosphere reactions, powder calcination, and material sintering. Featuring a rotary furnace tube structure combined with an independent multi-zone temperature control system and an adjustable tilt angle, the equipment ensures uniform heating and thorough reaction of materials under dynamic rotation, thereby significantly enhancing heat treatment efficiency and consistency. It is particularly well-suited for processes involving the calcination, oxidation, reduction, and atmosphere heat treatment of powder materials.

Product Features

  1. Openable furnace chamber design for easy maintenance

The furnace features an openable structure, facilitating the replacement of the furnace tube and heating elements, as well as simplifying cleaning and maintenance. Compared to traditional fixed-chamber designs, this significantly reduces maintenance difficulty and time costs.

  1. Recrystallized silicon carbide furnace tube: high-temperature and thermal shock resistance

The furnace tube is made of recrystallized silicon carbide (SiSiC), with a diameter of 300mm and a heating zone length of 1700mm. Recrystallized silicon carbide has good high-temperature strength, oxidation resistance, and thermal shock resistance.

  1. Independent control of three temperature zones for superior temperature uniformity

The system features three independently temperature-controlled zones, with heating elements (silicon carbide rods) arranged around the furnace tube to create a uniform heating field. This meets the stringent requirements for temperature consistency in high-temperature material processing.

  1. Adjustable furnace tube tilt angle for controlled material flow

The furnace tube tilt angle can be adjusted between 1° and 10°, and the rotation speed can be adjusted between 1 and 10 revolutions per minute. By adjusting the tilt angle and rotation speed, the residence time of the material in the tube can be flexibly controlled.

  1. 304 stainless steel sealing flanges with graphite packing seals

Both ends of the furnace tube are sealed using 304 stainless steel flanges and graphite packing, ensuring excellent high-temperature sealing performance. Flexible stainless steel hoses are used for the material inlet and outlet connections to minimize the impact of equipment vibration.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

  1. What are the main advantages of the rotary tube furnace?

The rotary design allows the materials to tumble continuously inside the furnace tube, effectively preventing clumping and uneven heating, while improving reaction efficiency and product consistency.

  1. Does the equipment support atmosphere control?

Yes. The equipment supports the introduction of various gases—such as oxygen, nitrogen, argon, and air—enabling heat treatment processes under oxidizing, reducing, or protective atmospheres.

  1. What is the temperature control precision?

The equipment utilizes an independent three-zone temperature control system, achieving a control precision of ±1°C and a temperature uniformity of approximately ±2°C, making it suitable for high-precision material heat treatment requirements.

  1. Can the furnace tube material be changed?

The standard configuration features a recrystallized silicon carbide tube; however, other high-temperature resistant materials—such as corundum or quartz tubes—can be selected based on specific process requirements (customization required).
