Sintering furnaces are used in a variety of industries for the purpose of sintering. Sintering is heating a material to a specific temperature below its melting point but high enough to cause its particles to adhere to each other. There are three main stages of sintering: heating, cooling and holding. Sintering is commonly used in powder metallurgy, ceramics manufacturing, and various other fields.
Typical industries that use sintering furnaces include:
Cutting Tool
Powdered Metal
3D process
Advanced Ceramics
Body and Vehicle Armor
Aerospace
