On-site observation of high temperatures up to 1500°C with your microscope [IR-TPS].

The "OCT-equipped Heating Observation Furnace" is a compact design that utilizes a focused heating method and is an internal observation device equipped with OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography). Using this device, a research group from Yokohama National University and the Kanagawa Institute of Industrial Science and Technology successfully observed the internal structural changes of ceramics during sintering at high temperatures for the first time in the world. Please utilize it for research and development of materials such as ceramics and resins. For more details, please refer to the catalog.

- Metals / Filler materials / Ceramics / Solder / Glass, etc. - This measurement allows you to experience high-temperature observation using a demonstration unit of the "IR Series" concentrated heating furnace, which represents the test equipment manufacturer, Yokokura Seisakusho. Due to its sealed structure, the IR Series furnace can achieve a maximum temperature of 1800°C under an atmosphere-controlled environment, as in the case of the IR-18SP. You can capture real-time changes in the test subject by checking videos of actual experiments and the test program. *Please note that the equipment used is a demonstration unit, and we may not be able to accommodate requests depending on the circumstances, so please contact us for details. *There may be variations depending on the thermal capacity of the test specimen. ▼ Features of the IR Series ▼ The rapid heating performance and superior temperature control, along with information from the observation port, significantly shorten heating experiment times and facilitate the screening of optimal heating conditions, contributing to improved efficiency in material development tasks.

The concentrated heating furnace "IR Series" is used in various research facilities around the world and is flexible in accommodating customizations. ▼ Features of the IR Series ▼ The rapid heating performance and superior temperature control, along with information from the observation port, significantly shorten heating experiment times and facilitate the screening of optimal heating conditions, contributing to improved efficiency in material development tasks. ▮ Rapid Heating and Cooling & Temperature Control Performance With a heating rate of approximately 50°C/sec using concentrated heating, rapid cooling is possible with the heating lamp turned off. The temperature control performance achieves a temperature control accuracy of ±1°C through high-speed PID control of the heating lamp volume in relation to the temperature program. ▮ Compatibility with Various Atmospheres All furnaces adopt a vacuum chamber structure and allow for gas replacement. They are compatible with heating under high vacuum, inert gas, reducing atmospheres, and humidified dew point control atmospheres via bubbling. ▮ Easy Experimentation and Observation The compact and energy-efficient design does not require a specific installation location. Due to the fast heating rate, there is no need to preheat the furnace, allowing experiments to be conducted whenever desired. ▼ Other Detailed Features ▼ - Real-time observation during heating - Clean Please check the related links for observation videos and examples of observation screen transitions!
