Large Commercial Vacuum Furnace
September 1, 2016
Solar Atmospheres of Western Pennsylvania and Solar Manufacturing, Inc. have built a large vacuum furnace. "This unique piece of equipment will not only open up new production opportunities within the North American vacuum heat treating markets, but also internationally," said a spokesperson.
The working hot zone of this high vacuum (three 35" Varian diffusion pumps) furnace is 80" diameter x 48' long with a maximum operating temperature of 2,400 °F. Thirty-five points of temperature were surveyed to within +/- 10 °F per the stringent AMS 2750E specification. The dual load car design has the capacity to transfer up to 150,000 lbs. of material in and out of the furnace. For dimensionally critical, near net shaped jobs, the dual load car design has the capability to maintain the critical support needed at elevated temperatures to keep parts flat to within .030".
