A Resistance Furnace is a type of industrial furnace that uses electrical resistance to generate heat. It consists of heating elements made from materials that resist electric current, causing them to heat up when electricity flows through them. This heat is then transferred to the materials being processed, such as metals or ceramics, allowing for melting, forging, or sintering.
These furnaces are commonly used in various applications, including metalworking and materials science. They offer precise temperature control and energy efficiency, making them suitable for tasks that require consistent heating. Resistance furnaces are often employed in laboratories and manufacturing settings to achieve high-quality results.
