How to Choose Vertical Tube Furnaces?

Different types of tube furnaces have their own advantages. Choosing a right tube furnace is important to your heat treatments performance.

• Working temperature range firstly: namely 30-1100°C, 1200-1300°C, 1400-1700°C. By this mean, it is important to know the actual working temperature of the loaded materials. In addition, price and furnace structures differ much among temperature ranges.
• Heating zone: single zone, 2 zone, multi-zone tube furnace, a suitable working space will improve the heating performance and cost less
• Heat treatment processes affect the furnace configurations. For example, for quenching test, a vertical tube furnace is better.
• Furnace chamber working conditions: sometimes, the processed conditions affect the furnace structure much. For example, kind of atmospheres, vacuum level etc.
