Charge Saggars for Sintering Furnaces LHT 02/17 LB Speed and LHT 03/17 D
For charging zirconia workpieces charge saggars are recommended. A saggar basically consists of the sintering dish as base and the spacer ring with ventilation openings. The material is highly resistant to temperature fluctuations and can be used for processes with short heat-up and cool-down times.
When charging the furnace it must be ensured that the lower charge carrier is generally resting on the spacer ring. This provides for air-circulation under this carrier and improves the temperature uniformity. It is recommended to cover upper saggar with another sintering dish as lid.
The starter set consists of a charge saggar, a spacer ring as a base and a second sintering dish as lid. The use of additional saggars (sintering dish and spacer ring) allows charging on additional levels. Both furnace models are designed to get charged with up to three charge saggars.
Number of required charge levels in overview:
- 1 level: Starter set which includes 2 sintering dishes and 2 spacer rings
- 2 levels: Starter set + 1 sintering dish + 1 spacer ring
- 3 levels: Starter set + 2 sintering dishes + 2 spacer rings

Placing the zirconia product in charge saggars provides for optimum utilization of the furnace chamber. Up to two saggars + spacer can be stacked in the furnaces. The integrated air slots in the saggars and spacer ensure a better air circulation of the charge. The upper saggar can be closed with a separate ceramic lid.
Note: The Accessories Described above are Designed for Cold Charging and Discharging. Removing the Accessories in Hot Condition is not Possible.
