The new system significantly expands the company¡¯s capacity to heat treat highly sensitive materials such as precipitation-hardened stainless steels, nickel-chrome-based superalloys, titanium, and niobium.
Engineered for precision and performance, the furnace incorporates strategically placed isolation valves, an oversized main valve, a high-capacity diffusion pump, and a polished stainless-steel chamber. Together, these features create an ultra-clean processing environment that meets the stringent demands of the aerospace and medical industries. Capable of achieving vacuum levels below 5 x 10?? Torr, the system ensures bright, contamination-free results.
Michael Johnson, sales director at Solar Atmospheres of Western Pennsylvania, stated: ¡°The all-metal vacuum furnace plays a critical role in delivering the purest possible processing environment. This level of cleanliness and control results in pristine end products that meet the most demanding industry standards. We¡¯re proud to partner with the engineers at Solar Manufacturing to bring this advanced technology to fruition.¡±</span></p><p><br/></p>
