This furnace is specifically for hardening ferrous metals, particularly steel, by heating them to a critical temperature (typically 850°C for many steels) and then rapidly quenching in oil, water, or polymer. The working principle involves a chamber that heats the parts uniformly to the austenitizing temperature, followed by a quick transfer to a quench tank. Its purpose is to increase the hardness and wear resistance of components like tools, gears, and bearings. It is a fundamental piece of equipment in heat treatment shops and manufacturing plants.
This configuration is suitable when the sample load must fit a 585 x 585 x 900 MM chamber with usable chamber volume of 308 litre, approximate power load of 29.4 kW, square chamber profile. It is commonly selected for laboratory, QC, metallurgical, ceramic, pharmaceutical and industrial heat-treatment work requiring stable heating and repeatable process conditions. Typical use includes general laboratory and industrial heat-treatment applications requiring stable, repeatable temperature control.

Trutherm manufactures 1000 Degree Celsius (°C) Hardening Furnace 585 x 585 x 900 MM Chamber for buyers who search by exact machine type, chamber size and 1000°C temperature rating. This page is specific to the MM dimension version, so the chamber size is presented in the unit normally used in the buyer's drawing, tender or purchase request.
A muffle furnace isolates the sample from direct contact with heating elements or combustion gases, giving cleaner, more repeatable results than an open flame or hot-plate process.
Because muffle furnaces are used across ashing, drying, calcination and light heat-treatment, the chamber and controller are specified for flexibility rather than one narrow process window.
