4.1 Function
The FINOSINT KOMPAKT High-Temperature Sinter Furnace is used to fire sinterable ceramics.
The product to be sintered is placed in the sintering dish and set on the support pins in the combustion
chamber.The heat-up process starts after entering the heating parameters and pressing the Start button.
Once the heating program has ended and the sintering oven has cooled down, the finished product can be
removed from the oven.
Heating chamber
The product is sintered in the heating chamber. This consists of two different ceramic insulation layers and is
operated using four heating elements connected in series. The outer insulating layer is designed for tempera-
tures up to 1200 °C; the inner layer for temperatures up to 1650 °C.
Oven door
The oven door consists of a two-part ceramic door panel. A safety switch disconnects the heating current as
soon as the oven door is opened.
The oven door has an electronic lock and can be opened only if the temperature is below 300 °C.
Oven housing
The oven housing consists of steel plate coated with plastic on both the inside and the outside and is cooled
by a permanent ventilation system.
NOTICE
The packaging protects the sintering oven against transport damage, corrosion
and other forms of damage. Only remove it shortly before initial commissioning
and store it in dry conditions for later reuse.
