Advanced hot-zone and cooling gas stream design in vacuum furnaces for automotive applications
Heat treatment processes of various components and loads have most different requirements regarding uniform cooling as well as for high quenching speeds. The single chamber vacuum furnace with rectangular hot zone design and large scale gas through-streaming is still and again for many standard loads and also special applications recommendable. Round hot zone design with nozzle cooling system *RD PLUS* can offer advantages with higher cooling capacity for hardening processes of large size components.
