“This new furnace is equipped with an all-molybdenum hot zone and a finely polished stainless steel cold wall. Critical vacuum pumping will be conducted on the vacuum chamber only with the integration of two (2) isolation valves. This design has proven to produce bright clean work on the critical medical device materials that we are processing. We now have identical furnaces in our clean room working 24/7,” commented Bob Hill, president of Solar Atmospheres of Western PA.
The furnace is 24” x 24” x 36” deep with an all-metal hot zone.
Solar Atmospheres supported this expansion by doubling the size of their existing medical clean room.
