VacuumFurnaces.com is a Q&A community where vacuum furnace product and service suppliers connect with commercial and captive heat treaters to share their practical skills and know-how and to establish valuable relationships around niche topics of expertise with vacuum furnace end-users in operations, production, training, maintenance, marketing, sales, and engineering.
Are vacuum furnace leak rates linear?
Leak rates are not typically linear in nature.

See lessCFC, Graphite, or Moly, which is the best choice for vacuum ovens?
Thanks for the information. My direct question was related to fixturing, not hot zones for htre furnace.

See lessWhy use partial pressure in a vacuum furnace?
Partial pressure can be used to assist in removing impurities and heat distribution during the heating process.

Hydrogen bakeout is commonly used for materials or processes when hydrogen induced cracking is a concern. Heating the material to a temperature high enough and long enough to allow the trapped hydrogen to escape from the areas where it is trapped in the material.

Hydrogen bakeout is commonly used for materials or processes when hydrogen induced cracking is a concern. Heating the material to a temperature high enough and long enough to allow the trapped hydrogen to escape from the areas where it is trapped in the material.
This is a common process for post welding of chrome moly steels that do not use low hydrogen welding processes or electrodes and heavy weldments.
See lessWhat temperature is vacuum brazing performed at?
Technically brazing is performed above 840F. Vacuum furnace brazing temperatures are determined by the braze filler metal being used and the base metals involved. You should refer to the appropriate material specification for your industry for the applicable variables.
