GPC 13/300B Retort Furnace for Powder Metallurgy and Additive Manufacturing

Carbolite Gero’s GPC 13/300B Retort Furnace (as with all our General Purpose Chamber furnaces) is suitable for a variety of laboratory, pilot scale and industrial applications which require heat treatments up to 1100ºC. Designed with a modified inert atmosphere for annealing and sintering of Additive Manufacturing applications it can be optionally fitted for compliance to AMS 2750E Class 1 (+/-3C) and can also be equipped with Instrumentation type A, B, C or D.

The 13/300B reduces O₂ levels to below 30ppm ensuring a perfect finish to the final part; has a swing door for ease of loading and unloading; continually monitors inert gas flow volumes and has forced cooling for faster cycle times. With unrivalled uniform temperature distribution and gas tightness (ensuring minimal usage of expensive gases) at high temperatures, a DMLS ‘impossible part’ can be annealed to ensure the final uncontaminated product acquires the correct metallurgical composition with all stresses removed.

This furnace is ideal for those involved in rapid prototyping, manufacturing one-offs or small batches using an Additive Manufacturing process our solution is affordable and delivers outstanding results. It is therefore a perfect match for applications which call for a single platform furnace and which small volume requirements for one-off components
