Historically, a muffle furnace was designed to ensure any material being heat treated was isolated from the combustion fuel to combat contamination by ash, gas fumes or soot. Once electrical heating elements were introduced, those by-products were eliminated and today the terms “muffle“ and “chamber” are interchangeable.
Carbolite Gero's comprehensive high-quality muffle furnace range is manufactured to exacting standards ensuring long-term durability. These bench-mounted or larger floor-standing muffle chamber furnaces can reach temperatures of up to 1800°C [3272°F] and have been developed over the last 80 years by the highly qualified engineering team at Carbolite Gero.
Our long history of manufacturing furnaces for customers around the globe has ensured that the Carbolite Gero name is synonymous with ‘Leading Heat Technology’, and that a significant proportion of our muffle furnace product line manufactured almost 30 years ago is still in use thanks to regular preventative maintenance and servicing.
Whatever your available budget, we have a quality solution that will exceed your expectations; delivering rapid ramp times, outstanding temperature uniformity, intuitive touch-screen control and numerous optional extras, including integral balances [for thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and loss on ignition (LOI) applications], and afterburners for removing excessive smoke and noxious fumes during the heat treatment process.
Our extensive portfolio virtually guarantees there is an appropriate standard solution that will meet your needs, but for more unique applications, our bespoke design service allows us to meet almost any customer requirement.
马弗炉是一种加热装置，可满足实验室工作对精确温度控制和温度均匀性的要求。它是许多实验室的标准设备，可用于灰化或材料热处理等多种应用。马弗炉也称为箱式炉或箱式炉。
马弗炉有多种最高温度可供选择。 最高温度取决于结构中使用的加热元件类型。 最常见的是金属丝加热元件，最高温度在 1000°C 至 1200°C 之间。 使用碳化硅加热元件的马弗炉可达到 1600°C，使用二硅化钼加热元件的可达到 1800°C。
马弗炉的应用范围很广，包括灰化、材料热处理、退火、煅烧、失火分析、热重分析、淬火和烧结。
马弗炉达到最高温度所需的时间取决于多个因素，包括炉子的大小、可用的最大功率以及建造炉子所使用的材料。 使用低热质量隔热材料的实验室用小型马弗炉可在 20 分钟内达到最高温度，而使用致密耐火材料的大型马弗炉可能需要几个小时才能达到最高温度。
