Graphite Hot Zone Assembly for Single Crystal Furnace
Product Overview
Our complete graphite hot zone assemblies are engineered for single crystal silicon growth furnaces, providing uniform temperature distribution, excellent thermal insulation, and long service life. Each hot zone assembly is precision machined from high-purity isostatic graphite and C/C composite materials to meet the demanding requirements of Czochralski (CZ) crystal growth processes.
We design and manufacture complete hot zone systems including heating elements, insulation panels, support structures, and crucible assemblies. Our graphite hot zones are used by major semiconductor and solar crystal manufacturers worldwide, delivering consistent performance and reliable operation for high-volume crystal production.
