Vacuum Furnaces Market Drivers and Opportunities

Growing Application in the Aerospace Industry to Favor Market

The aerospace industry is one of the major end-users of vacuum furnaces. As heat treatment is used in the aerospace industry to improve the resistance of various components toward wear and corrosion, major methods involve the heat treatment of engine parts subjected to mechanical stresses and strains. As it offers high reliability, a smaller installed footprint, and ease of maintenance, vertical vacuum furnace heat treatment is utilized to heat parts with a cylindrical cross-section or parts that can be stacked vertically, which is commonly processed in the aerospace industry. Vacuum furnaces are used for brazing, annealing, solution treatment, aging, hardening, stress relief, and other thermal treatments. As a result, the vacuum furnace market is growing owing to the wide range of applications in the aerospace industry.

Furthermore, the aerospace and defense (A&D) industry is engaged in the development of new technologies and solutions, extending development prospects, and establishing new markets. New technologies and processes that evolve quickly and are commercialized can enhance efficiencies and lower production costs. Trends in increased commercial air travel and client order activity are substantially better than in the pre-COVID-19 era, a bullish omen for the business. Global COVID-19 vaccine distribution assists in the normalization of air travel. Therefore, the revival of the aerospace industry drives the vacuum furnace market.

Integration of New Technologies

The future of metallurgical heat processing technology is continually changing. Vacuum furnace technology is well known and used by engineering industrialists with the vision of establishing this process technology as a vehicle capable of enabling many of the novel thermal-metallurgical transformations of today's engineered and manufactured products. According to existing and expected international trends, vacuum furnace technology currently has significant potential to continue to develop in the future. It is a technology that will enable materials science and its industrial partners to easily enter the third millennium. Therefore, vacuum heat processing technology plays an essential role in brazing complex geometric non-ferrous aluminum alloys
