A furnace is typically run at temperature between 500 o C- 1200 o C. Because of such elevated temperatures, furnaces require a lot of safety precautions in their normal operations. Because of requirement of better products many times it is essential that heating inside furnace be done under vacuum. Such a furnace is called a vacuum furnace. Advantages…

Vacuum Chambers It is but natural that during the process, material being coated on substrate will fall off in the vacuum chamber. For example, Aluminum heated and evaporated to be coated on BOPP film (film metallizing) or on some object (object metallizing) will fall off on vacuum chamber and shields. Being in molten state this…
