Ceramic Sintering

Generally the ceramic sintering process is to convert a highly porous compacted powder into high strength uniquely shaped product. Products are used in a variety of applications where high temperature capability, corrosion resistance, and abrasion resistance are required.

Metal Sintering

There are some unique products made from powdered metals that have special heat characteristics. These metals are known as refractory metals. This class of metals is extraordinarily resistant to heat and wear. In the context of materials science and engineering these elements share some interesting properties:

These similarities make them useful in powder metallurgy; where the metal powders are handled similar to ceramic powders. Interesting and complex shapes can be formed and compressed then placed into a high temperature furnace to form finished products or mill shapes for further processing.

 Heat Treatment 

Heat treatment systems commonly utilize an inert controlled atmosphere to thermally process a product. There are a broad range of process applications, the most comon being brazing, annealing, and curing. Tev Tech has designed a wide variety of heat treatment furnace systems. We have delivered heat treatment systems with graphite and metal hot zones comfigured in several different geometrys, and have operated at ultra high vacuum to positive pressure.
