High Temperature Test Furnaces

Retrofitmach develops, manufactures and supplies products for quality assessment in material testing under high temperature (HT).

Our mission is to determine the previously unknown requirements of the customers for high temperature test equipments in order to create technically optimal solutions.

Suitable for variety of high temperature tests, including tension, compression, bending and fatigue testing of metals, composites, ceramics and many other materials. 

Retrofitmach develops different kinds of models that there are enough solutions for various test requirements, which are determined by the type of the test (tension, pressure, bending), sample geometry and temperature. Other furnace designs, e.g. for higher temperatures and/or for using under special environmental conditions (vacuum, protective gas) are also available. To find the right furnace for your requirement specifications, send us your details for a quick inquiry. 

Elevated Temperature Tests

If the existing machine needs to high temperature test applications, our engineers offers additional high temperature furnaces with their own control systems.

High temperature standard furnace

• 3-zone furnace; standard from RT°C to 1600 °C (higher temperatures are optional, please define detailed)

• Openings for load train, Thermocouples and Extensometers

• 3 Thermocouples for furnace controller (changeable regarding test applications)

• Precise temperature distribution by 3-zone-temperature- controller

• Light, thermal insulation material

• Made of stainless steel

• Integrated, sophisticated control algorithm for precise temperature along the specimen and for protection from overshoot of temperatures.
