This furnace is optimized for the complex heat treatment cycles required by tool steels (e.g., H13, D2), which involve hardening at high temperatures and multiple tempering steps. Operating up to 1000°C or more for hardening, it requires precise atmosphere control to prevent decarburization. The working principle ensures uniform heating to the specific austenitizing temperature of the grade, followed by controlled quenching and precise tempering. Its purpose is to produce durable dies, molds, cutting tools, and punches that can withstand high stress, abrasion, and impact in manufacturing.

Trutherm manufactures 1200 Degree Celsius (°C) Tool Steel Heat Treatment Furnace 875 x 600 x 600 MM Chamber for buyers who search by exact machine type, chamber size and 1200°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.
This configuration is suitable when the sample load must fit a 875 x 600 x 600 MM chamber with usable chamber volume of 315 litre, approximate power load of 29.6 kW, rectangular - wide 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.
A muffle furnace is usually the first furnace a lab installs, since it covers the broadest share of everyday heating, drying and ashing tasks before more specialised equipment is added.
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.
As a general-purpose muffle furnace, this model covers a broader range of routine heating tasks than a process-specific ashing, tube or sintering furnace, making it the practical default when the lab runs mixed sample types rather than one dedicated process.
