OTF-1200XS6-ASD is a 6" OD automatic tube furnace up to 1200°C. It automates the pump-purge cycles, gas flow, heating, and cooling in a sequence via one click via PC. With the assistance of a robot for sample loading and retrieval, it can operate autonomously 24×7 to accelerate next-generation material discovery. It also supports remote PC control, monitoring, and data logging to link up to 8 furnaces.
Note: Please check out Prof. Ceder's Group using this furnace for an excellent article: An autonomous laboratory for the accelerated synthesis of novel materials
