Debinding Furnace for Thermal Post-Processing in Additive Manufacturing

ZYLAB 1200°C Debinding Furnace

Introduction

ZYLAB 1200°C Debinding Furnace is a high-performance solution tailored for thermal post-processing of metal and ceramic parts produced via additive manufacturing. Engineered for precision binder removal under vacuum or controlled atmosphere, this furnace is ideal for applications that require mid-range temperature debinding and pre-sintering treatment.

It offers a cost-effective alternative to high-temperature systems, while maintaining high thermal uniformity, excellent process repeatability, and intuitive digital control — making it especially suitable for labs, research institutes, and pilot-scale production lines.

  Perfect for binder burnout and low-temperature sintering in metal or ceramic-based AM parts.

• Dual Atmosphere Operation
  Compatible with vacuum and inert gas environments (argon, nitrogen), ensuring clean and controlled processing.

• Precise PID Temperature Control
  Advanced fuzzy logic controller with ±1°C accuracy and multi-step programmable profiles.

• Uniform Heating with High-Efficiency Insulation
  Alumina fiber insulation and optimized heating layout deliver fast heating and uniform temperature distribution.

• User-Friendly Interface
  Touchscreen operation, curve display, auto-start, and real-time data logging for easy, intelligent control.

• Built-in Safety System
  Includes over-temperature protection, gas pressure monitoring, and cooling system safeguards.

• Customizable Chamber Design
  Furnace chamber size and structure can be tailored based on specific application needs.

Applications of 1200°C Debinding Furnace

• Binder removal of 3D printed metal components in Metal Fused Filament Fabrication (Metal-FFF) or Metal SLA.

• Pre-sintering treatments for ceramics, including green body densification and phase stabilization.

• Debinding of MIM-like parts before high-temp sintering.

• Suitable for R&D, prototyping, and low-volume production.

FAQ – 1200°C Debinding Furnace

Q: What is the ZYLAB 1200°C Debinding Furnace used for?
A: It is designed for thermal post-processing of metal and ceramic parts made by additive manufacturing, particularly for debinding, low-temperature sintering, and pre-sintering under vacuum or inert gas.

Q: What types of 3D printed materials are compatible with this furnace?
A: The furnace is ideal for metal-polymer composite filaments (e.g. Metal FFF), ceramic green bodies, and other AM parts that require controlled binder removal or densification below 1200°C.

Q: Can the system store and record thermal process data?
A: Yes. It can store up to 20 temperature profiles and record key process data like temperature, power, and time. Data can be exported for analysis or documentation.

Q: Does this furnace require external cooling?
A: For high-temperature operation, connection to a water chiller is necessary to protect sealing components like silicone gaskets.

Q: Can the furnace chamber be customized?
A: Yes, ZYLAB offers customized chamber sizes and feedthrough options based on user requirements and sample dimensions.
