CFC Batch Baskets
Carbon fiber composite batch baskets for loading small components into vacuum and atmosphere furnaces. Open-frame construction allows full gas circulation around parts. Operating temperature up to 2000°C.
CFC Batch Baskets are designed for loading small or irregularly shaped components into vacuum furnaces, sintering furnaces, and controlled-atmosphere retort furnaces. The open C/C composite panel construction ensures uniform gas flow, temperature distribution, and quench gas access around every part in the charge.
Baskets are fabricated from woven or felted C/C composite panels joined with graphite pins or carbon-carbon fasteners. This construction eliminates metallic contamination at high temperature — a critical requirement in medical implant sintering, cemented carbide processing, and aerospace brazing.
Standard basket profiles include rectangular, cylindrical, and drawer-style designs. Handles and stacking lugs are integrated into the frame for safe furnace loading and unloading. Custom internal dividers can be added to prevent part contact during processing.
