Description
The Mellen CF12.5 crucible furnace is designed for efficient melting and casting workloads in lab or light-production environments. Achieving 1,250 °C, this horizontal benchtop furnace provides consistent thermal performance within a generous 12″ cube chamber.
Built with high-density ceramic-fiber insulation, the unit ensures rapid ramp-up and energy conservation. Its durable steel housing supports robust use, while PID-compatible control allows precision ramp-and-soak temperature programs (controller sold separately). Ideal for melting metals, glass, ceramics, or processing alloys and composites.
