Clear usage requirements:
Determine the main uses of experimental box furnaces, such as metal heat treatment, ceramic sintering, material synthesis, etc.
Determine key parameters such as the required temperature range, atmosphere control type, and furnace size based on the purpose.

Temperature range and accuracy:
Determine the required maximum and minimum temperature ranges based on experimental requirements.
For experiments that require high temperature accuracy, choose a box furnace with a high-precision temperature control system.

Atmosphere control:
Select a box furnace with appropriate atmosphere control function according to experimental or process requirements.
Pay attention to the type of atmosphere (such as nitrogen, argon, etc.) and the accuracy of the atmosphere control system to ensure the purity and stability of the required reaction atmosphere.

Furnace size and structure:
Select the appropriate furnace size based on the size of the sample or workpiece to be processed.
Ensure that the furnace can fully accommodate and uniformly heat the sample, while leaving enough space to ensure the uniformity of the atmosphere.
The design of the furnace door should meet operational requirements and facilitate the insertion and removal of samples.

Heating elements and methods:
Understand the characteristics of different heating elements, such as silicon carbon rods, silicon molybdenum rods, resistance wires, etc., and choose heating elements that are suitable for usage needs and temperature ranges.
The selection of heating methods should also consider energy efficiency and uniformity.

Insulation performance:
Choose a box furnace with excellent insulation performance to reduce heat loss and improve energy efficiency.
This requires consideration of the quality and thickness of the lining material to ensure its high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, and low thermal conductivity.

Safety performance:
Safety performance is a factor that cannot be ignored when choosing a box furnace.
Ensure that the furnace has safety measures such as over temperature protection and air leakage alarm to prevent accidents from occurring.

Equipment quality and after-sales service:
Choose products with reliable quality and stable performance, and consider the supplier’s after-sales service and technical support capabilities.
This will help ensure the long-term stable operation of the equipment and timely resolution of issues.

Usability and Maintenance:
Choose a box furnace with user-friendly design and easy operation.
Consider the convenience of maintenance, so that cleaning, maintenance, and other tasks can be easily carried out during use.

Budget:
Based on one’s own economic strength, choose products with high cost-effectiveness within the budget range.
