Laboratory Furnaces utilize MAT and radiant heat.

Press Release Summary:



Offered in 2 temperature ranges and 2 chamber sizes, furnaces combine controllability of radiant heating elements with thermal equalizing effect of microwave heating system. Furnaces incorporate over-temperature protection control system as well as temperature controller that allows for 20-segment programming of both radiant and microwave heating. Use of Microwave Assist Technology (MAT) promotes energy efficiency and uniform sample heating.

Introducing the MRF Microwave Assist Technology Furnace from Carbolite



Carbolite is pleased to announce the development of a new range of laboratory furnaces that combines both radiant heating technology and microwave technology.

Microwave Assist Technology (MAT) is one of the biggest breakthroughs in furnace technology over the last 25 years. MAT offers distinct advantages over conventional heating technologies, including:

Greater energy efficiency
Faster, more uniform sample heating
Improved material properties
Rapid product development

Microwave Assist Technology was invented by researchers who recognized that the combination of radiant and microwave heating would be ideal for uniform fast firing of ceramics. This initial research was so successful it lead to a worldwide patent, filed in 1993. Microwave assist technology provides a unique method for safely combining electric heating elements with microwaves.

The design of these new furnaces is described as Microwave Assist Technology (MAT). MAT is one of the biggest breakthroughs in furnace technology over the last 25 years. Microwave assist furnaces offer distinct advantages over conventional radiant heating, including, Faster, more uniform sample heating, Improved material properties, Greater energy efficiency, and Improved yield. Carbolite presently offers this furnace in two temperature ranges and two chamber sizes. The design of the furnaces combines the controllability of the radiant heating elements with the thermal equalizing effect of the microwave heating system. The furnace temperature controller allows 20 segment programming of both the radiant and microwave heating, giving users a high degree of flexibility. An over-temperature protection control system is included with the furnace.
