SAFTherm STM-3-17 Muffle Furnace Stove

High-Temperature Muffle Furnace STM-3-17 (1700 °C Laboratory Furnace) Description: Precision high-temperature muffle furnace model STM-3-17, engineered for laboratory, research, and industrial heat-treatment applications. This compact yet powerful furnace reaches up to 1700 °C, making it ideal for ceramic sintering, metallurgical testing, material annealing, glass melting, and powder calcination. The STM-3-17 features a robust insulated chamber with MoSi₂ (molybdenum disilicide) heating elements, ensuring stable and uniform temperature distribution. The system provides precise digital control with an accuracy of ±1 °C, allowing for highly repeatable thermal cycles. Includes set of additional heating elements. New, unused.
