OTF-1200XS5-ASD is a 5" OD tube furnace with a fully automatic operation if paired with a robot. It automates the vacuum sealing, purging, heating, and cooling in a sequence via one click. Fully automation can also be realized via a laptop and a robot, including remote control, data logging, sample loading, and unloading. The maximum working temperature is 1200°C. Note: Please see Prof. Ceder's Group using this furnace for an excellent article: An autonomous laboratory for the accelerated synthesis of novel materials
SPECIFICATIONS:
Furnace
|
- Double-layer steel structure with splittable cover

|
Airtight Flanges and Sliding

|
- 5" Dia. Water-cold stainless steel flange with silicone O-ring and valves for airtight heat treatment (Pic. 1)
- The right side flange will be driven by a dual compressive cylinder for closing or opening via electric valves
- A Digital pressure sensor is built-in to control pressure from 1 Pa to 200 KPa automatically
- Max. The vacuum level is dependent on the vacuum pump.
- One rotary vacuum pump is included, which can reach a 10 Pa vacuum.
