Harper’s patented vertical furnace systems are our latest thermal processing innovation for a wide range of product feedstocks, particularly for materials requiring high temperature solid-solid and solid-gas reactions, such as carbides, nitrides, borides and refractory metal powders. This new system is a design alternative to other traditional furnace types, with the following advancements:

• Minimizes the opportunity for product sticking or gas-phase entrainment during processing
• Maximizes product uniformity and reaction time by minimizing or eliminating bulk bed effects
• Provides better heat and mass exchange between products and reactants for improved efficiency
• Limits heating and cooling requirements to the process material only – containment remains at temperature and the process material moves through it
