This furnace is used for processing zinc, typically for melting (for die casting or galvanizing) or for heat treatment. Operating at a relatively low temperature (around 500°C, above zinc's melting point of 419°C), it must manage zinc's volatility and oxidation. The working principle often involves a crucible or pot design, sometimes with a covering flux to minimize dross formation. Its purpose is central to the production of die-cast zinc components (like automotive parts and hardware) and for hot-dip galvanizing to provide steel with corrosion protection.
This configuration is suitable when the sample load must fit a 330 x 660 x 330 MM chamber with usable chamber volume of 71.9 litre, approximate power load of 16.3 kW, rectangular - tall 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) Zinc Furnace 330 x 660 x 330 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.
A muffle furnace isolates the sample from direct contact with heating elements or combustion gases, giving cleaner, more repeatable results than an open flame or hot-plate process.
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.
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.
