This furnace is used to intentionally oxidize materials, either as a processing step (e.g., growing oxide films on silicon wafers) or to test a material's oxidation resistance. Operating at temperatures like 800°C, it exposes samples to an oxygen-rich environment. The working principle involves flowing oxygen or air through a heated chamber containing the sample. Its purpose in semiconductor manufacturing is to create silicon dioxide insulating layers. In materials testing, it is used to measure weight gain over time to evaluate alloys for high-temperature service, such as in turbine engines.
This configuration is suitable when the sample load must fit a 175 x 175 x 350 MM chamber with usable chamber volume of 10.7 litre, approximate power load of 7.5 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 1400 Degree Celsius (°C) Oxidation Furnace 175 x 175 x 350 MM Chamber for buyers who search by exact machine type, chamber size and 1400°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.
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.
Routine QC and teaching labs value a muffle furnace precisely because one unit can cover several standard test methods without dedicated process-specific tooling.
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.
