1. Overview of replaceable rotary tube furnace products
The replaceable rotary tube furnace is a versatile high-temperature heat treatment equipment with strong versatility. Unlike traditional fixed tube furnaces, the highlight of this equipment is that the furnace tubes can be quickly disassembled and freely replaced. The equipment supports the interchangeable use of multiple materials for furnace tubes, and one device can meet various experimental and process requirements, effectively reducing research and equipment procurement costs. This type of rotary tube furnace uses silicon carbon rods for heating, with a maximum operating temperature of 1400 ℃. It can be designed as a multi zone temperature control structure, with a uniform and stable temperature field. It is widely used in university laboratories, new material research and development, chemical powder, new energy materials, metallurgical industry and other fields. It is currently a cost-effective multifunctional heat treatment furnace on the market.

2. Advantages of replaceable furnace tube structure design
a. Multi material furnace tube universal, strong compatibility
This rotary tube furnace adopts standardized flange sealing interfaces, which can quickly replace furnace tubes of different materials without changing the furnace structure. Suitable furnace tubes include quartz tubes, metal tubes, silicon carbide tubes, corundum tubes, mullite tubes, graphite tubes, etc. Different materials of furnace tubes correspond to different temperature ranges, different acid-base atmospheres, and different reaction environments. Users can freely switch according to the characteristics of the experimental materials, truly achieving multi-purpose use of one machine.
b. Rotating inclined structure, uniform heating of materials
The equipment is equipped with a mechanical rotating and tilting mechanism, and the furnace tube can rotate at a constant speed and the angle can be adjusted. Powder materials continuously roll and flow in the furnace to avoid material accumulation, sintering agglomeration, and uneven heating. Compared to ordinary fixed tube furnaces, rotary tube furnaces produce materials with higher purity, more complete reactions, and better product consistency, making them very suitable for processes such as powder modification, high-temperature calcination, drying and impurity removal.
c. Multi zone independent temperature control, high temperature control accuracy
The equipment adopts a multi zone segmented temperature control design, with each heating zone independently controlled by temperature, and equipped with high-precision thermocouples to collect temperature, with a temperature control accuracy of ± 1 ℃. The constant temperature range inside the furnace is longer, the temperature gradient is stable, and it can simulate complex heating curves, meeting high standard experimental requirements such as gradient sintering, slow annealing, and constant temperature insulation.

3. Core configuration and hardware parameters
a. Heating system
The heating element adopts silicon carbon rod, which is resistant to high temperature, oxidation, and has a long service life. The maximum working temperature can reach 1400 ℃. The heating rate is controllable, freely adjustable from 1-10 ℃/min, and the heating is stable without temperature difference impact, protecting the material structure from damage.
b. Vacuum and Atmosphere System
The whole machine adopts a high sealing flange structure with good sealing performance, which can achieve vacuum pumping treatment and can also be filled with inert protective atmospheres such as nitrogen and argon. Effectively isolate oxygen, prevent high-temperature oxidation of materials, and adapt to heat treatment processing of reducing materials, easily oxidizable materials, and special powders.
c. Security protection system
The device comes with multiple safety protection functions, including over temperature alarm automatic power-off, thermocouple disconnection protection, overload protection, and high temperature interlock protection. Once the equipment experiences abnormal temperature rise or sensor failure, the system will automatically shut down and cut off power to eliminate safety hazards. The operation is simple, safe, and reliable.
