    摘要: A compound sintering furnace with managed contamination for debinding and sintering parts. An inner insulation layer is disposed within an outer insulation layer and has an internal hot face surrounding a work zone. A sealed housing surrounds the inner insulation layer and is composed of a refractory material capable of withstanding a service temperature greater than a debinding temperature and less than a sintering temperature. An outer heater system is configured to heat at least a portion of the sealed housing and externally heat the inner insulation layer to, in conjunction with an inner heater system, heat the work zone to the debinding temperature, and inhibit condensation of a binder within and upon the inner insulation layer during a debinding process. The inner heater system is configured to internally heat the inner insulation and heat the work zone to the sintering temperature.

    摘要: Certain aspects of the technology disclosed herein include an apparatus and method for forming nanoparticles. The method includes a mechanical milling process induced by aerodynamic, centrifugal, and centripetal forces and further augmented by ultrasound, magnetic pulse, and high voltage impact. A nanoparticle mill having an atmospheric and luminance controlled environment can form precisely calibrated nanoparticles. A nanoparticle mill can include first aerodynamic vane configured to rotate around a central axis of the nanoparticle mill in a first direction, and a second aerodynamic vane configured to rotate around the central axis in a second direction. An aerodynamic shape of an aerodynamic vane can be configured to cause particles within the nanoparticle mill to flow around the aerodynamic vane. The nanoparticle mill can include a primary product line, a nanoparticle sampling line, a particle programming array, a solidifying chamber, or any combination thereof.
