Vacuum furnace for 3D printing is a heat treatment equipment specialized in 3D printing, whose main function is to heat and treat printed parts in a vacuum environment to improve their performance and quality. The vacuum furnace reduces the possibility of parts being oxidized by removing oxygen from the air, thus avoiding the emergence of an oxidized skin layer on the surface of the parts and improving the stability and heat resistance of the parts.
The main functions of the vacuum furnace include:
1. vacuum environment heating: vacuum furnace can be heated in a vacuum environment to avoid the generation of oxidized skin layer and improve the surface finish and quality of parts.
2. uniform heating: the internal heating of the vacuum furnace is uniform, which can ensure that the temperature of the printed parts in the heat treatment process is uniformly distributed to avoid excessive temperature gradients leading to parts deformation or cracks.
3. Heat treatment process control: the vacuum furnace is equipped with advanced temperature control system, which can accurately control and adjust the temperature according to the material and process requirements of the parts to ensure that the heat treatment process of the parts meets the requirements.
4. High-temperature annealing: the vacuum furnace can realize high-temperature annealing treatment to improve the strength and hardness of the parts, improve the grain structure of the material, and enhance the wear resistance and corrosion resistance of the parts.
5. Stress elimination: vacuum furnace can effectively eliminate the stress inside the parts through the annealing treatment in the heat treatment process to improve the stability and fatigue resistance of the parts.
In conclusion, vacuum furnace for 3D printing is a very important heat treatment equipment, which can effectively improve the quality and performance of 3D printing parts, widely used in aerospace, automotive, medical equipment and other fields. The development of vacuum furnace will further promote the development of 3D printing technology and provide strong support for the progress and development of related industries.
