- Reliable and cost-effective

Why choose it
Why choose a cart door horizontal vacuum furnace
When your processes call for maximum repeatability and the ability to handle substantial loads, the cart door vacuum furnace delivers the most effective answer. A versatile system for the main heat treatments — hardening and tempering, ageing, stress relieving, solution treatment, annealing — as well as brazing and diffusion bonding.
Distinctive features
Engineered for heavy and bulky loads

Bulky loads handled safely
Engineered to transfer large parts in complete safety. The motorized rail, built into the door, makes the entire chamber length usable.

Plant crane integration
The distinctive cart door configuration lets you handle bulky, heavy or delicate loads with the plant overhead crane, reducing manual effort.

Easy thermocouple access
Thanks to the dedicated layout, thermocouple sensors can be placed throughout the charge with ease, reaching even the most demanding spots.

Best heating uniformity
The system features six independently controlled heating zones. The resulting flexibility shortens cycle times and ensures uniform heating of the workload.
