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

The stainless steel KITTEC melting kilns in the XA model series are particularly designed for the so-called wax melting procedure, a forming procedure for casting metal and glass.

The models used to be made of wax, but nowadays more and more of them are made from plastic. The models are encased, which creates a cavity mould round the model. The original model now has to be “melted out” so that the residue-free cavity mould remains.
KITTEC melting kilns provide the suitable conditions for numerous mould materials: Clays, prepared loams, quartz-sand mixtures or zirconium or olivine sand with synthetic binding materials.
The entire firing procedure is controlled by a digital controller. This leaves you with plenty of scope with regard to choice of time and temperature, but also has reliable fixed programmes. The microprocessor control with the digitally storable firing curves and the exact temperature measurement with the platinum rhodium thermocouple allows you to determine the firings yourself and repeat them exactly at any time. The controller that is the most appropriate for your application depends on the firing curve you require.

Features of model series XA

Stainless steel grate with outlet pipe through the base of the kiln

Continuous mortar-free brick lining reduces cracking

Gas pressure spring support for easy lid opening

Extra-large exhaust air opening at side with bypass exhaust air system

Further features of model series XA:
