December 8, 2004 - Nashua, NH --
Centorr Vacuum Industries Inc., Nashua, NH, is pleased to announce the manufacture and delivery of a new Multi-Purpose, High
Temperature Vacuum Hot Press with "Interchangeable" Metallic and Graphite Hot Zones.
The hot press can operate in vacuum, partial pressures, as well as positive pressures of inert gas. It is rated for operation to
1400°C and a force of 60 Tons and is designed to press 4" (101.6mm) diameter compacts. The unit is outfitted with
interchangeable press platens of Graphite and Molybdenum to allow for diffusion bonding operation or powder compaction.
Temperature control is handled by a Honeywell DCP-550 programmable controller, with both force control and position control using
UDC-3300 controllers for independent profiles.
The system is capable of high vacuum operation using a Varian Diffusion pump and a mechanical pumping system.
This unique system with interchangeable hot zone design is ideal for R&D programs where high temperature material compatibility
is required.
Centorr Vacuum Industries is a high temperature vacuum / controlled atmosphere furnace manufacturer with an installed base of over
6000 units worldwide. Their furnace offering ranges from large commercial and production units to smaller Lab and R&D furnaces
for use at temperatures over 3000°C. They are located in Nashua, NH with a fully staffed Aftermarket Field Service group, and
