Iranian Researcher Designs, Builds 1,600-Degree Celsius Lab Furnace
“This electric furnace has been designed and built with a capacity of three liters, 2,000 watts of power and a bilingual menu in Farsi and English,” Sa’adat Dousti, who works at the incubator center of technological units of Islamic Azad University’s Shahr-e Kord branch, told ANA.
He added that materials and energy laboratories, dental laboratories for sintered zirconia, performing heat treatment for material decomposition, calcination of ceramics and nanotechnology polymers, chemical vaporization of melting and heat treatment, alloying, drying of polymers, physical and chemical analysis, oxidation and reduction, purification of synthesis materials and sintering of refractory materials are among the applications of these laboratory furnaces.
“PLC control system, seven-inch touch screen, easy use and very low energy consumption due to the special programming of the device that uses artificial intelligence are other advantages of the laboratory furnace which is made in dimensions of 50*50*86 cm, and it is possible to design and manufacture similar devices with different capacities and dimensions based on the needs of the consumer,” Dousti said.
A laboratory chamber furnace is a heating device that meets the precise temperature control and temperature uniformity requirements of laboratory work.
It is a standard piece of equipment in many labs, used for a wide range of applications such as ashing or heat treatment of materials.
