Application

1 Silicon Steel & Magnetic Material Processing

It is essential for annealing grain-oriented (GO) and non-oriented (NGO) silicon steel cores (used in transformers and motors). Under vacuum, it eliminates oxidation, optimizes silicon steel's grain orientation, and reduces internal stress—directly enhancing magnetic permeability and lowering core loss. This ensures the energy efficiency of final electrical products (e.g., low-loss transformers, high-performance motors) meets industrial standards.

2 Metal Component Manufacturing (Automotive & Machinery)

For high-strength metal parts (e.g., automotive transmission components, precision mechanical gears) and stainless steel products, the furnace performs vacuum annealing to relieve internal stress caused by forging, casting, or machining. This prevents deformation/cracking during subsequent processing or use, improves material toughness and fatigue resistance, and extends the service life of components—critical for automotive and heavy machinery reliability.

3 Amorphous Alloy & Special Material Treatment

It processes amorphous alloy cores (for amorphous transformers/inductors) and rare metal materials (e.g., titanium alloys). The vacuum environment avoids oxidation of fragile amorphous alloys during annealing, maintains their unique atomic structure, and stabilizes magnetic properties. For rare metals, it ensures surface purity, laying the foundation for their application in high-tech fields (e.g., aerospace precision parts).
