AllFit µBF Atmospheric Box Furnace with Superheated Steam

This multi-purpose heat treatment equipment provides treatment in low-oxygen atmospheres with superheated steam.
It can be used for debinding treatment of MLCC and LTCC, electrostatic chucks, and other electronic and ceramic components, as well as drying and degreasing of metal components.

Features

  • Higher specific heat than heated air and better radiation effects for uniform heating in less time
  • Treatment is completed in a shorter time, reducing the thermal load on the workpieces.
  • Low-oxygen processing capabilities
  • Improved productivity and reduced running costs through accelerated hydrolytic reactions of processed products
  • Safer and lower cost than N2 gas
