The invention concerns a dental furnace, with a furnace base and with a furnace hood, wherein the furnace hood includes a firing chamber for the accommodation of dental restorations, with a temperature sensor that records the temperature of the dental restoration and which is connected to a control device which controls the dental furnace, and the dental furnace (10) includes a drive unit (18) for the furnace hood (16) and the control device (30) controls the drive unit (18) based on the temperature recorded by the temperature sensor (20), namely opens the furnace hood.

A high-temperature forming device for imperfect single-crystal wafers used for a neutron monochromator includes a heating electric furnace, a temperature control system, a die system, a loading system, a vacuum protection system, and an auxiliary system. Where a furnace mouth of the heating electric furnace faces downwards, the heating electric furnace can be lifted vertically or a hearth of the heating electric furnace can be opened and closed. A vacuum protection cavity is formed by a glass cover and a blocking flange, a through hole is formed in one end of the glass cover, and the other end of the glass cover is closed. An operation opening is formed in the glass cover, the die system includes an upper die, a middle die, and a lower die, the middle die is a composite die.

Apparatus and methods for debinding articles. The apparatus and methods may transform binder from furnace exhaust before the exhaust is discharged to the atmosphere. The apparatus may include a furnace retort and a reactor. The furnace retort may be configured to: exclude ambient air; and receive a carrier gas. The reactor may be configured to: receive from the retort (a) the carrier gas and (b) material removed in the retort from the article; and combust, at a temperature no greater than 750 C., the material. The material may be decomposed binder. The material may be hydrocarbon from binder that is pyrolyzed in the retort. The carrier gas may include gas that is nonflammable gas.

A vertical dual-chamber annealing device is provided. The vertical dual-chamber annealing device includes an outer chamber unit, an inner chamber body, a temperature control unit, a supporting structure, and a gas-tight seal structure. The inner chamber body can be moved upward, such that the inner chamber body can be located in the outer chamber unit and supported by the supporting structure. After the supporting of the supporting structure is removed, the inner chamber body is moved downward and separated from the outer chamber unit. Therefore, an arrangement of the inner chamber body and the outer chamber unit can increase the convenience of cleaning and replacing the inner chamber body. The structure of the inner chamber body can enhance the uniformity of a reaction temperature. The gas-tight seal structure isolates an inert gas and a reactive gas, which is beneficial to the recovery and the reuse of the reactive gas.
