Laboratory and Industrial Furnaces from ATSSince 1965, Applied Test Systems (ATS) has been working to create an unmatchedline of precise and affordable materials testing equipment. A large part of this effort has been in the field of high-temperature testing and production. As a result ofnearly four decades of research, development, design, testing, and re-testing, ATShas created a complete line of furnaces and high-temperature accessory items thatis unmatched in quality, versatility, and reliability.The standard line of ATS furnaces has been designed for general laboratory use andalso for testing to ASTM standards and other specifications. All ATS furnaces areconstructed to customer requirements in a wide variety of diameters, lengths, sizes,and configurations, and are shipped complete with mounting brackets and accessoryequipment. Heating elements are provided in various materials and configurationsdepending upon temperature requirements and the specific application. Furnaceshave been designed for easy replacement of failed elements in the laboratory, saving you time and money.Outstanding design features such as the use of low K-factor vacuum-cast ceramicfiber insulation and low watt-density heating elements provides significant advantagesand benefits to the user, including reduced power consumption, faster heatup, longerelement life, and lower shell temperatures.Several different types of furnaces are available, including tube, split tube, box,split box, high-temperature, low-profile, silicon carbide, controlled-atmosphere, andindustrial furnaces. All are described separately in this bulletin along with furnaceaccessories, mounting arrangements, components, and retorts. This bulletin alsodemonstrates the custom design capabilities for which ATS has become known worldwide. With over 30 years of design experience in custom testing equipment, ATSis sure to provide you with an ideal solution for all of your high-temperature testingand manufacturing needs.In addition to furnace systems, ATS manufactures a complete line of laboratory testing machines and accessories, including universal testing machines, creep/stressrupture test frames, convection ovens/cryogenic cooling chambers, pressure testingsystems, asphalt testing equipment, and sealant testers, as well as grips, fixtures,load train components, extensometers, ultrasonic reference standards, and more.Come to ATS for all of your materials testing concerns, and you can rest assuredthat the equipment delivered to your facility will precisely meet all of your needs andexpectations.Applied Test Systems3www.atspa.com
