Exhibition Equipment

Product Name: Ceramic 3D Integrated Printing, Glue-Applying, and Sintering Furnace

The new products unveiled this time - Ceramics 3D Printing Degassing and Sintering Integrated Furnace , will Integrating the two core processes of debinding and high-temperature sintering, this system delivers end-to-end thermal processing—from green body to finished product—specifically designed to address the pain points of conventional manufacturing. The equipment features an integrated design that eliminates the need to transfer the green body, enabling complete debinding and sintering in a single operation and effectively preventing cracking, deformation, and contamination during handling. The furnace is constructed from high-quality, high-temperature-resistant materials with exceptional thermal insulation, paired with advanced heating and temperature-control systems that precisely meet the thermal-processing requirements of various ceramic materials, including zirconia, alumina, silicon nitride, and ceramic slurries, thereby providing stable and reliable forming assurance for 3D-printed ceramic components.

Product Name: Visual High-Temperature Deformation Analyzer

Visual High-Temperature Deformation Analyzer Optical non-contact measurement is used to quantify the thermal expansion and contraction of materials during sintering. During temperature cycling, changes in the material’s shape, dimensions, and phase state are monitored online in real time, with intuitive and accurate data and graphical reports generated via an intelligent data acquisition and image-processing system. The product’s performance is on par with comparable international products and ranks among the leading domestic offerings. The visual high-temperature deformation analyzer is used in materials research and development as well as manufacturing, helping to precisely optimize sintering and heat-treatment processes, thereby improving product quality and reducing production costs.

Product Name: Joule Heating Rapid-Firing Furnace UHS-3000Plus     Joule Heat Rapid-Firing Furnace is a versatile, next-generation rapid ultra-high-temperature sintering device. By employing Joule heating of electrically conductive carbon materials to generate a high-temperature field, it achieves ultra-fast heating and cooling rates as well as extremely high sintering temperatures, enabling the rapid synthesis and sintering of materials within just a few minutes. This process effectively suppresses the high-temperature volatilization of low-melting-point constituents, minimizes side reactions and interdiffusion, inhibits grain growth, and facilitates the fabrication of materials with complex geometries. It finds broad applications in ceramic materials, solid-state electrolytes, oxide fuel cell materials, metal nanocatalysts, graphene, and other fields.

Product Name: High-Temperature Static Water-Oxygen Environment Corrosion Tester

High-Temperature Static Aqueous Oxygen Environment Corrosion Tester Using laboratory testing methods It accurately simulates the high-temperature, high water-vapor partial-pressure, and high water-vapor-velocity conditions of turbine-engine operating environments, conducting cyclic tests on materials to evaluate their thermal corrosion and steam-oxidation corrosion, thereby enabling a precise assessment of their thermochemical stability. The equipment comprises an air-inlet control system, a liquid-inlet control system, a uniform vaporization unit, heated piping, and a heating reactor, among other components. It is primarily suited for applications in high-temperature thermal-barrier coatings, composite materials, alloys, and related fields.

Product Name: High-Temperature Reciprocating Thermal Shock Testing Machine

High-Temperature Reciprocating Thermal Shock Testing Machine Specifically designed for testing the thermal fatigue performance of materials under extreme cyclic temperature conditions, this system precisely controls repeated cycles of high-temperature heating and rapid cooling to simulate real-world thermal shock environments, thereby evaluating the material’s durability, crack propagation, and failure behavior under repeated thermal expansion and contraction.
