Muffle Furnace Manufacturer & Supplier in Chennai
Chennai, Tamil Nadu
Shrinitha Scientific is a muffle furnace manufacturer supplying laboratories and industries across Chennai. Every furnace is built at our own manufacturing unit in Vasai East, Maharashtra, tested before dispatch, and delivered to Chennai with installation guidance and spares support.
Chennai is one of India’s largest automotive and electronics manufacturing centres, with a petrochemical belt at Manali, research at IIT Madras, CSIR-CLRI and IGCAR Kalpakkam, defence units at Avadi, and a large gold jewellery trade. Many of them need a reliable muffle furnace for ashing, loss on ignition, calcination, sintering and heat treatment. We supply 1200°C, 1700°C and 1800°C muffle furnaces with digital PID or programmable controllers, built to the chamber size and heating cycle your work needs.
What is a Muffle Furnace?
A muffle furnace is an electrically heated, insulated chamber furnace in which the sample is heated without coming into contact with the heating elements or combustion products. That isolation gives clean, uniform and repeatable heating — which is why it is the standard instrument for ash determination, loss on ignition and high-temperature sample preparation.
Muffle Furnace Models Supplied in Chennai
Kanthal-wire heated. The everyday choice for ashing, loss on ignition, drying and routine QC.
MoSi2 heating elements for sintering, ceramic firing and high-temperature material research.
Top-end MoSi2 model for advanced ceramics, zirconia and alumina sintering and R&D work.
Prices shown are starting prices for the base configuration, ex-works Vasai, excluding GST. Final price depends on chamber size, controller and options. Each furnace is made to order and dispatched in 7–21 working days; delivery to Chennai takes 4–6 days and is included in the quote. As furnaces are custom-built, returns are not accepted; manufacturing defects are covered under our service support.
