KITTEC® INDUSTRIAL-LINE XA model series melting kilns up to 850 °C

The stainless steel Kittec® melting kilns of the XA type are specially designed for the process of the so-called lost wax process, a moulding process for metal and glass casting.

Mainly, the models are made out of wax, but nowadays more and more are being made of plastic. The models are encased, creating a cavity shape around the model. The original model must now be ”melted“, leaving the residue-free cavity shape. KITTEC ® Melting kilns offer the right conditions for a variety of mould materials: Clays, prepared loams, quartz-sand mixture or zirconium and olivine sand with synthetic binders. The entire firing process is controlled by a digital control system. This allows you to decide the time and temperature, and there are also reliable fixed programmes. The microprocessor control with the digitally savable firing curves and the accurate temperature measurement with the platinum rhodium thermocouple allow you to determine your firings and to repeat them at any time. The most appropriate control for your application depends on the firing curve you need.
