How Does the "Industry-Specific Customization Solution" of Shanghai Guanding High-Temperature Furnaces Adapt to Industrial High-Temperature Needs?

In Shanghai's automotive parts heat treatment workshops, electronic component sintering workshops, and special materials R&D bases, selecting a high-temperature furnace is never as simple as "checking the maximum temperature resistance" — quenching of automotive gearbox gears requires "stepwise temperature rise from 500℃ to 900℃ with a temperature difference ≤ ±5℃"; otherwise, cracks are likely to occur. Sintering of electronic ceramic substrates demands a "clean furnace chamber + oxygen-free atmosphere"; residual impurities will lead to component failure. Processing of special high-temperature alloys requires "nitrogen/hydrogen protective atmosphere". The "single high-temperature design" of general-purpose high-temperature furnaces often traps enterprises in the dilemma of "meeting temperature requirements but failing to meet process standards".

Furthermore, coupled with Shanghai's strict environmental standards (such as waste heat recovery requirements) and space constraints of narrow doorways in old workshops, many purchased general-purpose high-temperature furnaces either cause workpiece scrapping due to inaccurate temperature control or atmosphere imbalance, or fail to be put into production after delivery for not adapting to space and environmental requirements.

With over 10 years of in-depth experience in the industrial high-temperature field, Shanghai Guanding Industrial Equipment does not produce "general-purpose models that only compete on temperature resistance". Instead, it develops Shanghai high-temperature furnaces with "industry process needs as the core". Starting from the high-temperature pain points of three core scenarios (automotive, electronics, and special materials), it integrates "precise temperature control, atmosphere adaptation, environmental integration, and space flexibility" into the design, making each high-temperature furnace a "production unit that fits industry processes".

I. High-Temperature Needs of Different Industries: Why Do General-Purpose High-Temperature Furnaces Suffer from Incompatibility?

The core problem of general-purpose high-temperature furnaces lies in using a "unified temperature resistance standard" to meet the differentiated high-temperature needs of different industries — ignoring "process details beyond temperature", which ultimately leads to the disconnection between equipment and production scenarios:

1. Automotive Parts Heat Treatment: Lack of "Precise Temperature Control + Uniform Heating" Leads to Easy Workpiece Scrapping

High-temperature heat treatment (quenching, tempering) of automotive parts (such as gears and crankshafts) has strict requirements on heating rate, constant temperature accuracy, and temperature uniformity inside the furnace. A Jiading automotive parts factory once purchased a general-purpose high-temperature furnace with "maximum temperature resistance of 1200℃". When used for gear quenching, local overheating and cracking occurred in some gears due to a temperature difference of ±15℃ inside the furnace. Moreover, it failed to set the stepwise curve of "500℃ preheating - 850℃ constant temperature quenching - 200℃ tempering" in accordance with Technical Specification for Heat Treatment of Automotive Parts (QC/T 262-2019), resulting in uneven gear hardness and failure to pass the load test.

Most general-purpose high-temperature furnaces adopt "single-section fixed temperature control" and lack zoned temperature control and hot air circulation design for automotive heat treatment, which makes them completely unable to meet the process requirements of key parts such as gears and crankshafts.

2. Electronic Component Sintering: Lack of "Cleanliness + Oxygen-Free Environment" Results in Substandard Component Performance

High-temperature sintering of electronic ceramic substrates and semiconductor ceramic packages (temperature often reaches 800-1600℃) requires an impurity-free furnace chamber and oxygen-free inside the furnace. A Songjiang electronics factory used a general-purpose high-temperature furnace to sinter ceramic substrates. Due to the use of ordinary carbon steel for the furnace chamber, trace impurities were released at high temperatures, causing spots on the substrate surface. Without inert gas protection, the substrate edges oxidized and turned black, leading to a decline in component conductivity, which failed to meet the requirement for "particle concentration in the sintering environment" specified in Code for Design of Clean Rooms for Electronic Industry (GB 50472-2008).

The "ordinary furnace chamber material + no atmosphere control" design of general-purpose high-temperature furnaces completely fails to meet the high-temperature needs of electronic components for "cleanliness and oxygen-free environment".

3. Special Materials Processing: Lack of "Atmosphere Adaptation" Makes It Difficult to Meet Material Performance Standards

High-temperature processing of special high-temperature alloys (such as titanium alloys for aerospace) and new ceramic materials requires controlling the furnace atmosphere according to material characteristics (such as nitrogen for oxidation prevention and hydrogen for reduction). A Fengxian special materials enterprise once used a general-purpose high-temperature furnace to process titanium alloy components. Without an atmosphere control module, the thickness of the oxide layer on the component surface exceeded the standard. Subsequent grinding processes not only increased costs but also affected material strength. Additionally, it failed to meet the "atmosphere control accuracy" requirement specified in Industrial Resistance Furnaces (GB/T 30835-2014), leading to large performance fluctuations in batch products.

II. Shanghai Guanding High-Temperature Furnaces: 3 Industry-Specific Customization Solutions to Solve High-Temperature Process Pain Points

Guanding refuses to define high-temperature furnaces with "general parameters". Instead, it customizes the design from dimensions such as temperature control, atmosphere, material, and environmental protection based on the high-temperature process details of different industries. Each function corresponds to the "process standard" of the specific industry:

1. High-Temperature Furnace for Automotive Parts Heat Treatment: Precise Temperature Control + Uniform Heating, in Line with QC/T Standards

To meet the quenching and tempering needs of automotive parts, Guanding customizes core configurations in accordance with QC/T 262-2019:

• Stepwise Temperature Control System: Adopts "3-zone independent PID temperature control". Each zone is equipped with a Class A platinum resistance sensor (accuracy ±0.1℃), which can accurately set the stepwise curve of "preheating - constant temperature - cooling". The heating rate is adjustable from 0 to 10℃/min, meeting the differentiated heat treatment needs of gears and crankshafts;

• Uniform Heating Design: A high-temperature circulation fan (temperature resistance 1200℃) is installed inside the furnace. Combined with a deflector to optimize the air path, the temperature difference inside the furnace is ≤ ±5℃, avoiding workpiece cracks caused by local overheating;

• Durable Materials: The inner wall of the furnace chamber uses 1700℃ grade mullite refractory bricks (complying with GB/T 30835-2014), and the load-bearing frame is made of 310S stainless steel (temperature resistance 1200℃), suitable for high-temperature placement of heavy automotive parts (such as crankshafts with a single weight of 50kg).

2. High-Temperature Furnace for Electronic Component Sintering: Clean Furnace Chamber + Atmosphere Control, Meeting Electronic Industry Standards

To meet the sintering needs of electronic ceramics and semiconductors, Guanding designs from the dual dimensions of "cleanliness + oxygen-free environment":

• Clean Furnace Chamber: The furnace chamber is made of 316L stainless steel (complying with GB/T 20878-2021), and its inner wall undergoes mirror polishing to reduce impurity adsorption. The furnace door is sealed with high-temperature resistant silicone sealing rings to prevent external dust from entering, meeting the cleanliness requirements of GB 50472-2008;

• Oxygen-Free Atmosphere: Equipped with an inert gas (nitrogen/argon) control system, the flow rate is adjustable from 0 to 50L/min. The oxygen content inside the furnace can be controlled below 100ppm to avoid oxidation of ceramic substrates;

• Precise Temperature Control: Adopts "infrared temperature measurement + platinum resistance dual detection" to monitor the furnace chamber temperature in real-time, avoiding substrate size deviation caused by temperature difference. After a Minhang electronics factory used it, the sintering yield of ceramic substrates increased to 98%.

3. High-Temperature Furnace for Special Materials: Atmosphere Adaptation + Environmental Integration, Meeting Shanghai Regulatory Requirements

To meet the high-temperature processing needs of special materials and Shanghai's environmental protection requirements, Guanding adopts a "synergistic design of atmosphere + energy conservation":

• Multi-Atmosphere Compatibility: Supports multiple protective atmospheres such as nitrogen, hydrogen, and argon, and is equipped with a gas purity filtration device to meet the different atmosphere needs of high-temperature alloys and new ceramic materials, complying with Safety Technical Specification for Special Industrial Furnaces (GB 50677-2011);

• Environmental Protection and Energy Conservation: Built-in waste heat exchanger reduces the exhaust gas temperature from 600℃ to below 150℃, increasing thermal efficiency to over 85%, which is in line with the energy conservation requirements of Standards for Pollution Control of Volatile Organic Compounds from Unorganized Emissions (GB 37822-2019);

III. Shanghai Local High-Temperature Furnace Services: Full-Link Support from "Process Adaptation" to "Commissioning Guarantee"

The "implementation effect" of high-temperature furnaces is inseparable from in-depth understanding of industry processes and rapid response of local services. Relying on its production base in Songjiang, Guanding provides "industry-specific services" for Shanghai enterprises to avoid "equipment incompatibility after delivery":

1. Pre-Sales: Industry Process Research to Accurately Identify Needs

The technical team not only measures the workshop space (doorway, floor height, load-bearing capacity) during on-site visits but also gains in-depth understanding of the customer's workpiece type (such as gears, ceramic substrates), high-temperature process curve (heating rate, constant temperature time, atmosphere requirements), and industry standards (such as QC/T 262-2019). It issues the Shanghai High-Temperature Furnace Industry Adaptation Report and clarifies core parameters such as temperature control accuracy, atmosphere type, and furnace chamber material.

2. In-Sales: Test Firing Verification, Production Only After Meeting Standards

In Guanding's laboratory, "small-batch high-temperature test firing" is conducted using the customer's actual workpieces/materials — for example, testing gears for automotive factories (testing hardness and crack conditions) and sintering ceramic substrates for electronics factories (testing cleanliness and conductivity). The High-Temperature Process Test Firing Report is issued, and production is only initiated after the customer confirms that the results meet expectations.

3. Post-Sales: 24-Hour Response to Avoid Production Delays

Shanghai-based customers enjoy 24-hour on-site service. If failures occur in the temperature control system or atmosphere module of the high-temperature furnace, engineers arrive at the site for repairs in a short time. "High-temperature furnace health checks" are provided, including temperature control accuracy calibration, furnace chamber cleanliness testing, and atmosphere system tightness testing.
