Jet kilns / Shuttle kilns

Kilns specially designed for giftware pottery, red clay and stoneware, porcelain, decoration, etc.

Kiln Casing

Constructed using rolled steel sections, plated 5mm thick mild steel sheet.

Burners

High velocity burners complete with flame control.

Temperature Control

Digital microprocessor and security controller.

Insulation - 3 Options
1 - High temperature insulation bricks.
2 - Combined lining incorporating high temperature insulation bricks and ceramics fibre modules.
3 - Ceramic fibre lining of walls and roof.

Note
The insulation and burners used ensure:
- Very short firing cycles (up to four firings/day).
- Uniform heat distribution.

NOTE: External dimensions do not include piping and are for 1200ºC. Other kilns are possible to be built upon request, according to the clients particular specifications.

Control Panels

This is an area where FORNOCERAMICA also shows its know-how.

The control panel equipped with colour screen computer has been developed by FORNOCERAMICA, using the G.I.F. (Integrated Fornoceramica Managment System), a system which is in constant evolution and devlopment, and which can be adapted to the specific reqirements of each kiln/client. On the monitor the user may access at any time all the required information. It is possible to look at and control, according to the selected program, the kiln temperature, the kiln pressure, the kiln atmosphere, and the gas/air ratio.

A single button automatic "starter" and an automatic return to firing after a shut off due to energy failure (adjusting immediately to actual kiln temperature), are two of the possible features with this control panel (G.F.I.).

If necessary, the user can print all this data by using a simple printer. For kilns requiring a basic system, there are other types of panel using microprocessors which offer guaranteed trouble free performances.
