Both ovens are very common in precision manufacturing, and they reshape the production process in very different ways. Industrial ovens and vacuum ovens, these two test devices are similar from the name to the appearance, but they solve the material handling problem with differentiated technology. This article takes you through the differences.
The industrial oven adopts a forced hot air circulation system, heating the air through an electric heating heat pipe, and then forming a 2-5m/s circulating air flow by a centrifugal fan. Industrial ovens, like large blowers, are suitable for rapid dehydration of conventional materials without changing the state of the material in the environment.
The vacuum oven reduces the pressure of the chamber to 0.1-10KPa through the vacuum pump to change the environment of the material, and then heats it with the electric heating tube. Its working principle is similar to that of a space dewatering chamber, in a low pressure environment, the boiling point of water can be reduced to below 40 ° C.
