What to avoid when operating vacuum furnaces

What to avoid when operating vacuum furnaces

In this episode, you’ll learn what not to do with vacuum furnaces.

We’re flipping the script — instead of best practices, we’re diving into the worst ones we’ve seen in the field.

/ Opened a vacuum furnace like it’s your fridge at midnight?
/ Skipped the leak test because “it’s probably fine”?
/ Ignored the water check?

Spoiler: it’s never fine.

In this cautionary episode, SECO/WARWICK expert Łukasz Chwiałkowski joins us to break down the most common (and costly) vacuum furnace mistakes:

/ Vacuum + no partial pressure = total mess
/ Moisture in insulation = process disaster
/ No water checks = corrosion says hi

If you’re running vacuum furnaces — or just want to avoid turning one into a CSI scene — this episode is for you.
